‘The microblogging platform is aware of this hack and was taking necessary actions to save those people’s account from malicious activity, said a Twitter insider.
It was huge, 55.000+ accounts have been hacked and it wasn’t possible to share such a huge pile of usernames and passwords in a single paste. So it took the hackers five Pastebin pages to leak the data. This hack is just an alert to other millions of Twitter users that they could be hacked anytime.

Even after encountering a huge number of hacks in the past including movies, dramas, cartoons voice-over artist, sports and other celebrities account. All they need to do is to add a password strength checker during signup while changing passwords. And guide the users to create a strong password. That could save a lot of users frustration.
