In this video, you'll learn how the largest hack in Twitter history was carried out, what consequences it led to, and how the hacker was caught.

On July 15, Twitter was hacked in an attempt to gain access to the verified accounts of celebrities and large companies. In total, hackers gained access to 130 accounts, including those of Microsoft founder Bill Gates, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett, rapper Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian, former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, former US Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, former US President Barack Obama, as well as official accounts of Uber, Apple, the money transfer service Cash App, and other companies.

In each of the hacked accounts, the attackers tweeted the following:

"All bitcoins sent to the address below will be sent back double! If you send $1,000, I'll return $2,000. Only within 30 minutes."
After the public learned of the Twitter hack, the company's shares plummeted in the after-hours trading session on the New York Stock Exchange.
