Bit24.cash, an Iranian cryptocurrency exchange, experiences a security breach, resulting in the leakage of user passports and IDs.

Bit24.cash, Iran's over-the-counter crypto exchange, exposed sensitive data belonging to nearly 230,000 users through a misconfigured MinIO instance. This included written consent to regulations and official documents such as passports, IDs, and credit cards. The incident highlights the critical nature of compromised KYC verification data on cryptocurrency exchange platforms. The instance has since been secured and is no longer accessible.
