#钱包安全漏洞 The recent events involving Trust Wallet have weighed heavily on my mind. Over $6 million in losses, behind which are countless people's trust betrayed.
After carefully reviewing the technical team's analysis report, the entire attack chain is actually quite clear: the hackers began preparations on December 8th, successfully implanted a backdoor on the 22nd, and started transferring funds on Christmas Day. The most shocking part is that the largest single loss was $3.5 million, and this address has been dormant for a year—what does this indicate? It shows that some assets that appear "safe" can have their defenses shattered in an instant when faced with a professional APT attack.
What I want to share with everyone is that this is not about creating panic, but a genuine risk warning:
**First, take immediate action.** If you have used Trust Wallet extension, regardless of whether you currently have assets in your account, it is recommended to disconnect from the internet and conduct a thorough check. This is not overreacting; it’s about being responsible for yourself.
**Second, rethink wallet management.** Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. This is not only a principle of asset allocation but also the foundation of security architecture. My advice is: use one wallet for daily transactions, store large assets in a professional cold wallet or hardware wallet, and manage important private keys separately.
**Finally, embody a long-term mindset.** After experiencing such an event, some will panic, while others will give up entirely. What I want to say is that security and returns are not mutually exclusive. On the contrary, the so-called gains without security awareness may ultimately turn into bubbles. Good asset management means using sufficient defense to protect your long-term gains.
Stay vigilant, but don’t overanalyze. This is a prudent attitude.
