A user lost nearly 50M USDT after falling victim to a similar-character address attack. The user first sent a small test transaction to the correct address, but later sent funds to a malicious one copied from the transaction history. The malicious address is 0xBaFF2F13638C04B10F8119760B2D2aE86b08f8b5, while the intended address was 0xbaf4b1aF7E3B560d937DA0458514552B6495F8b5. Transaction volume spikes highlight the risks in altcoins to watch.
