#Strategy加码BTC配置 💰 Hot Topic 4: From $27 to $67 million, then back to zero — the Cruelest Lesson in the Crypto World



Small investments turning into millions is everyone's dream. But that dream was shattered on a certain Meme coin — because with a single trigger of the developer’s "permanent blacklisting" permission, all earnings were wiped out instantly. This is not an exaggeration; it’s happening in the crypto space right now.

The core issue is very painful: projects that claim to be "decentralized" actually give anonymous developers absolute power through a single control. Contract permissions are that power.

**What you think is "decentralized" is actually like this:**

👉 Developers hold the blacklist authority, which can freeze any wallet
👉 The pause permission means the entire contract can be halted at any time
👉 The mint permission allows unlimited token issuance, hidden in the corner, ready to be used to cut a slice someday

**Before investing in any project, you must do these three things:**

**1. Review the contract code on Etherscan** — Search for dangerous functions like blacklist, pause, mint, and see which wallets they are connected to

**2. Confirm whether permissions are dispersed or centralized** — Multi-signature wallets management > single control. If one person can decide everything, it’s a gamble on their conscience

**3. Check the audit report** — Endorsements from reputable firms like CertiK, OpenZeppelin can at least eliminate most basic vulnerabilities

Honestly, opportunities are always there, but surviving is the prerequisite. Don’t let the desire for quick riches turn into a reason to get cut. $ETH $BTC $BNB is good, but first learn to read the contract before deciding whether to get on board.

Damn, it's the same issue with contract permissions again. Do we really have to go through this routine for every new coin? I just want to ask, who really has the patience to dig through the code? Many people's minds are already fried by the time they get involved.

It's the same old story, all talk is nice, but it ultimately depends on the developers' conscience. I just want to ask, how many people actually go to Etherscan to dig through the code?

ngl this blacklist function exploit hits different... literally watching people's bags evaporate in real time because they skipped the contract audit step. that's just leaving basis points on the table, except it's all your capital lmao

That's why I always say, if you don't understand the contract, don't touch it. You really deserve to be liquidated.

It's the same old trick... The methods of cutting leeks have actually never changed throughout history, they've just put on a different blockchain disguise. Beneath the guise of decentralization lies the most centralized power, a biting irony.

Another scam to cut leeks. The blacklist permission should have been ridiculed long ago. Still claiming to be decentralized, hilarious.

67 million wiped out in one night, this is the true face of meme coins. Where's the promised decentralization?

Another developer permission bomb, I really can't hold it anymore. From 27 to 67 million and then to zero, this move looks painful. No wonder some people keep advising me to review the contract before moving money.

It's the same story again. Relying on the contract really can save lives, or else it's just giving money to the developers.
