Kylian Mbappe Account Uses Derogatory Term For Lionel Messi

While Mbappe is a known Ronaldo fan but he has refrained from insulting Lionel Messi. However, once the account was hacked, the hacker went a step ahead and used a derogatory term for eight-time Ballon d'Or winner and FIFA World Cup 2022 winner Lionel Messi.

As reported by Mirror, the launch of the 'Mbappe' token did dominate social media trends and its market value also soared to  millions within minutes but it wasn't sustainable at all as it all came crashing down to zero, quicker in time than it had soared.

While Mbappe was set to make a move to Madrid last season only, a dramatic U-turn saw him stay put at the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). However, he finally moved to Madrid this year and made an impressive debut, scoring a goal in Real Madrid's 2-0 UEFA Super Cup victory over Atalanta.
