Brace yourselves—wrench attacks are on the rise. This brutal assault method targets crypto holders directly, forcing them to surrender private keys or seed phrases through physical coercion. It's not a digital exploit, it's real-world theft.



Why should you care? Because no firewall, no hardware wallet trick, or exchange verification can save you when attackers have boots on the ground. Your security posture needs to shift.

What you should do:
- Never broadcast your holdings. OPSEC isn't paranoia, it's survival
- Diversify your asset storage. Don't keep everything in one location
- Consider multisig wallets for larger amounts
- Stay alert to social engineering that precedes physical attacks

The crypto community has weathered exchange hacks and smart contract exploits. Now it's time to get serious about personal security. Your keys, your responsibility—and that means thinking like you're a target.

To be honest, this is the real risk... No matter how good the technology defense is, it's useless; what you're really afraid of are things like this.

Hmm... now even the wrench has arrived, this is really dangerous. It sounds more frightening than a rug pull, after all, people can directly grab what's in the wallet.

Bro, now you really have to panic. In the face of physical violence, hardware wallets are indeed just decorations.
