Recently, several major figures in the crypto world have experienced issues with their social media accounts. First, a well-known project founder was affected, and just a few days ago, a prominent industry blogger’s account was hacked.

Generally speaking, social media platforms now all have two-factor authentication, logging in on new devices requires scanning a QR code on the old device, and these security measures seem quite strict. Why are there still frequent account breaches?

Is it due to upgraded technical methods, or is there a blind spot in our understanding of security? It seems that protecting accounts related to encrypted assets might actually be more complex than we imagined.

What can two-factor authentication prevent? Phishing links can easily bypass it.

Dual verification can't stop social engineering databases either; ultimately, it's still human weakness.

To be honest, dual verification can't really stop the social engineering methods. Most of these big shots are probably phished. The real trap lies in human nature; no matter how secure the system is, it can't escape the word "trust."

Two-factor authentication can't save those brothers who fall for social engineering scams. No matter how advanced the technology, it can't overcome human weakness.
