3 million USDT evaporated in an instant! "Pasting" turned out to be a wealth killer
Before a business trip, he asked his wife to transfer some money. After getting off the plane, the balance of 3 million USDT surprisingly became zero! After reporting to the police, he learned it was a civil dispute due to family actions. His wife was devastated, claiming she only pasted the mnemonic phrase. The truth is shocking; the problem lay in this "pasting".
He stored the mnemonic phrase on WeChat, his wife's old Android phone had not changed the password for years, and the WiFi had not been changed for three years. There was also a “financial assistant” plugin; this “death combination” allowed hackers to listen to the clipboard in real time. The moment the mnemonic phrase was pasted, the door to wealth opened, the money was transferred instantly with no transaction record.
In the crypto world, such painful lessons are constantly guarding digital assets, and three life-saving rules are ingrained in our DNA.
Rule 1: Mnemonic phrases, keep them extremely secret
Mnemonic phrases are like property certificates and safe passwords—write them down on a metal plate and store them properly. Do not take screenshots and send them on WeChat, not even to family. WeChat caches, albums, and cloud syncing leave traces; 70% of theft cases originate from screenshot transmission.
Rule 2: Operate wallets on a “pure” device
Use an old phone that only has the official wallet app installed, do not connect to public WiFi, and do not install “free coin” or “market plugins.” These plugins can read the clipboard, and hackers can listen for six months just waiting to copy the mnemonic phrase.
Rule 3: Family operations, be extremely cautious
Don’t think that teaching a few phrases to family members means they can operate the wallet. Authorization and verification can easily lead to phishing links. If help is needed, do it via video, and confirm the last four digits of the address after transferring coins.
Hackers clear logs on their servers after 72 hours; if the money is gone, there is no evidence left. Now immediately check how the mnemonic phrase is stored, the device plugins, and family awareness.
To survive in the crypto world, just watching K-lines is basic; preventing risks is key. Be meticulous with assets, and you will feel more secure against hackers! If you want to safely recover and increase your investments, remember these rules!

Hackers reach out to exchanges, who will protect the safety of funds?
An exchange was heavily scammed by hackers, losing a significant amount of money, but their withdrawal service didn't stop!
This incident happened on Friday morning, and the head of the exchange, Ben Zhou, exploded live on air, saying that they were scammed out of a huge sum of money in just two hours. Withdrawal requests piled up like a mountain, but they still gritted their teeth and worked overtime to ensure everyone could withdraw their money; the withdrawal service absolutely cannot be interrupted!
Look at the data from Coingecko, the trading volume of this exchange has skyrocketed, almost doubling, as everyone rushed to trade after hearing the news.
Ben Zhou also said they were considering bridge loans so they wouldn't have to buy coins on the market and could directly fund accounts, minimizing the impact on other users.
But how exactly did the hackers steal the money? They are also at a loss. They speculate that the hackers might have hacked into all the signers' computers. You know, for a wallet managed by multiple people, it requires several approvals to execute a transaction. Also, the Ethereum wallet brand they used might have caught the hackers' attention.
However, this is all speculation; Ben Zhou didn't blame anyone since even the best servers can be compromised by hackers. But the exchange’s security team stated on Twitter that they found no evidence indicating that the official system was hacked.
Moreover, Ben Zhou wrote that even if the police assist, the stolen money might not be recoverable. However, this money is only a small part of the total assets they manage.
This incident is truly alarming, but it also shows that this exchange's responsiveness is impressive!
In the upcoming bull market, I will lead everyone to aim for explosive opportunities in altcoins, with an expected potential of over 10 times, no problem at all. Like + comment, and I’ll take you through the entire bull market!

😓Ordinary users really shouldn’t go to the chain, other institutions can’t handle it, and it would be strange if individuals don’t get hacked.
100X community news:
Ronin Lianchuang Jihoz's personal account was stolen, emphasizing that the company's operations and security have not been affected
On February 23, Jihoz, the co-founder of Ronin Chain, announced that two of his personal addresses had been subject to security attacks. Jihoz emphasized that the attack was limited to his personal account and had nothing to do with the verification or operational activities of the Ronin chain. At the same time, the leaked keys have no connection to the operations of Sky Mavis. Jihoz assured the community that strict security measures are in place for all on-chain activities. BlockBeats previously reported that in response to the security company Ancilia’s claim that Ronin was suspected of having its private key leaked and more than 2,790 ETH was mixed into Tornado Cash, Ronin co-founder Psycheout said that there is no problem with Ronin and Bridge. This was just a whale wallet stolen and passed through Tornado. Cash wanders away.

Radiant Capital was hacked and lost $4.5 million, but funds are not currently at risk
On January 3, the Radiant Capital project suffered a severe flash loan attack, resulting in the loss of 1,900 ETH (approximately $4.5 million). Radiant Capital is a decentralized cross-chain lending protocol that allows users to deposit and lend various assets on different blockchains, eliminating liquidity silos.
According to on-chain data, the hacker took advantage of a time window for new market activation and a rounding issue in the Compound/Aave code base to execute a flash loan attack. This attack method refers to borrowing a large amount of funds, completing a series of operations within a block, and then returning the funds before the end of the block to make a profit.

🚨Emergency Alert: Indodax, Indonesia's largest exchange, suffered a hacker attack
Indodax, Indonesia's largest centralized exchange, was hacked, with losses of up to $18.2 million. The news shocked the entire industry!
The incident occurred on September 11, when security company Cyvers Alerts discovered suspicious transactions in the Indodax wallet and immediately issued an alert. The report showed that hackers had exchanged $14.4 million in tokens for Ethereum and were rapidly transferring assets.
Cyvers Alerts also found that more than 150 suspicious transactions caused Indodax to lose $18.2 million, and called on Indodax to respond quickly to reduce losses.
At the same time, PeckShield also monitored a large outflow of funds from Indodax, with an estimated $15.7 million in cryptocurrency stolen. These funds include tokens on Ethereum, Polygon, and Optimism.
Subsequently, the Indodax team quickly acknowledged the security breach and announced a suspension of services for maintenance to ensure the integrity of the platform. "We are undergoing full maintenance, during which our network and application will be temporarily inaccessible," they posted on social media X.
Despite the ongoing attack, Indodax assured users that their funds are safe. They thanked users for their patience and trust, and stressed that this maintenance is essential to ensure the security of transactions.
Indodax, formerly known as Bitcoin Indonesia, was founded by Oscar Darmawan and William Sutanto in 2014 and has become a major player in the Southeast Asian market, supporting the trading of more than 160 cryptocurrencies.
This attack is a reminder that cryptocurrency exchanges need to continuously strengthen security measures to protect user assets from threats. We also hope that Indodax can resolve this issue as soon as possible and recover from it.

The cryptocurrency industry is deeply entrenched in security dilemmas, ZachXBT addresses the challenges of hacking and money laundering
Blockchain investigator ZachXBT bluntly states that the cryptocurrency industry is overwhelmed in dealing with hacking and money laundering issues.
After participating in freezing funds involved in the recent Bybit hacker attack, he expressed deep concern about the state of the industry, feeling despair over the security measures and incident responses of both centralized and decentralized services.
When discussing 'systemic failures,' ZachXBT pointed out that the fundamental flaws of decentralized and centralized platforms lead to numerous security vulnerabilities. Some 'decentralized protocols' have nearly all their transaction volume and revenue coming from illegal actors like North Korea, yet these platforms do not take responsibility for facilitating illegal financial activities.
Centralized exchanges are slow to respond to verified threat intelligence, with stolen assets being laundered within minutes. At the same time, 'Know Your Transaction' (KYT) solutions are often easily circumvented, and 'Know Your Customer' (KYC) measures fail due to data breaches and account trading inefficiencies. This further highlights the security vulnerabilities in the crypto industry and the lack of financial regulation.
When discussing 'barriers to effective solutions,' ZachXBT acknowledged the risks of excessive government intervention but also questioned whether the industry can effectively self-regulate. He noted that large exchanges lack a quick response mechanism when facing hacking attacks, provide insufficient support to victims, and are known for trying to evade responsibility and refusing to return stolen funds.
Meanwhile, centralized stablecoin issuers do not ban addresses directly associated with major hacking events, allowing wrongdoers to continue evading justice, even though compliance tools used by large companies like Coinbase and Circle cannot regularly identify illegal activities.
Even some decentralized protocols, with most of their transaction volume coming from illegal channels, have not reassessed their own designs, and new blockchain networks and cross-chain bridges similarly neglect fundamental analysis and security safeguards.
Furthermore, over-the-counter trading clusters operating on Tron are almost entirely outside of regulatory oversight, resulting in a continuous flow of illegal funds and transactions, with wrongdoers maintaining the upper hand in this contest.
What do you think the cryptocurrency industry should do to address these security dilemmas? Is stricter regulation needed, or does the industry itself need to make more efforts?

🧑💻 Canadian hacker indicted by U.S. prosecutors, accused of stealing $65 million in cryptocurrency
Recently, a Canadian hacker named Andean Medjedovic was indicted by a U.S. federal court, accused of stealing approximately $6.5 million in cryptocurrency from two decentralized finance platforms, one called Indexed Finance and the other called KyberSwap.
This 22-year-old hacker reportedly manipulated smart contracts from 2021 to 2023, causing the protocols to miscalculate financial data, then extracted funds at a low price, resulting in significant losses for investors.
Prosecutors stated that Medjedovic attempted to hide his illegal gains through various means, including digital asset exchanges, bridge transactions, and cryptocurrency mixers for money laundering. U.S. prosecutor John J. Durham described this as a "highly sophisticated scheme" that utilized two decentralized finance protocols to steal tens of millions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency from investors.
If convicted, Medjedovic could face up to 10 years in prison for computer damage, with other four charges carrying a maximum of 20 years. This Canadian has been on the run since stealing funds from Indexed Finance in 2021. He has defended himself online with the argument of "code is law," claiming that these actions were legal.
Meanwhile, during several months in 2023, KyberSwap lost approximately $5 million in cryptocurrency. Blockchain investigators linked the incident to the wallet of this 22-year-old man, which later transferred $2 million to another wallet also associated with him. Prosecutors stated that after exploiting vulnerabilities, he attempted to transfer the stolen cryptocurrency to Ethereum but was blocked by developers. Allegedly, he felt frustrated and contacted customer service, asking them to handle the transaction.
Laurence Day, co-founder of Indexed Finance, stated that the arrest of the suspect would not bring much comfort to the victims. Most of the stolen cryptocurrency was later taken in another hacking incident, complicating recovery efforts.
In summary, this matter is quite complex, and it involves a lengthy process of recovering related assets! Do you think this hacker's "code is law" defense holds water? See you in the comments!

The most incredible hacking incident I have seen since I entered the circle for so many years
Just saw a friend expose a theft incident. The hacker directly used the social engineering data he bought to make a fake ID card, and then used AI to generate a fake head portrait video, deceived Okx's manual review, reset all the verification information, and stole more than 3 million dollars!
This is simply incredible, just like the plot in the movie, too f*cking scary😱
The victim should have a lot of information leaked, KYC information, account ID, email, etc., have all been leaked.
The only way to deal with it now is to protect your privacy and try not to show off your wealth in a high-profile manner. After all, it is not easy to make money in all walks of life this year, and the hostility is very strong. As long as I look like a poor guy, the hacker will be too lazy to make a fake ID for me, right?
BTW, I also have to remind all exchanges that in the future, sensitive operations such as password retrieval and 2FA reset must be added with KYC-like facial recognition, and manual review is not allowed.
