**"In a twist that defies the very ethos of decentralization, the shadows of the digital age reveal a stark paradox: the Bybit hackers, lurking in anonymity, now command a greater Ethereum trove than Vitalik himself—the architect of its vision. Let this be a wake-up call: in a world where code is law, security is the ultimate sovereign. Guard your keys fiercely, for even the brightest innovations can be eclipsed by the darkest exploits."**
