The blockchain landing platform Figure Technology has suffered a data leak involving user information. This was reported to TechCrunch by the company's representative, Aleteya Jadik.

According to her, the incident resulted from an attack on one of the employees using social engineering techniques. This allowed the attackers to steal a "limited number of files."

The company is maintaining communication "with partners and affected users" and offers free credit monitoring to those impacted, she added.

The responsibility for the attack has been claimed by the hacker group ShinyHunters. The attackers posted 2.5 GB of compressed files online after Figure refused to pay the ransom.

Figure Technology Solutions has allegedly been breached by ShinyHunters.

TechCrunch analyzed some of the data, which included full names of platform clients, home addresses, birth dates, and phone numbers.

A ShinyHunters member told the publication that Figure was among the victims of a large-scale attack targeting clients of the cloud access management service Okta. Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania are also listed among the affected.

The platform also showed strong growth in the consumer lending market — quarterly volumes increased by 131% compared to the previous year.

The company announced plans to sell up to $4.23 million of common shares on the market and simultaneously buy back its own shares from underwriters for $30 million. VanEck digital assets research head Matthew Sigel called this move "small but symbolic" support for Figure’s stock.

In September 2025, the landing firm raised $787.5 million in its IPO, with a valuation of $5.3 billion.

It is worth noting that last year, the stablecoin issuer USDC, Circle (raised $1.1 billion), and the brothers Winklevoss’s crypto trading platform Gemini (issued shares worth $425 million) also went public.
