An employee of a company in Shenzhen used a Trojan program to steal over 3 million USDT, was sentenced to four years in prison, and also compensated the victim company, with a court fine of 20,000 yuan.

Such on-chain theft cases are becoming more common, feeling like hackers are targeting the anonymity of cryptocurrencies, but the police's efficiency in catching criminals has also improved. Combined with the recent risk warning about virtual currency pyramid schemes in Shiyan, Hubei, it seems that regulation is tightening.

I think this four-year sentence is relatively light; the lesson is that private keys must be well managed, otherwise overnight wealth can turn into imprisonment. If the market heats up again in the future, similar incidents are likely to increase, and investors must be wary of these 'electronic master keys.'

Interestingly, this incident contrasts with the recent withdrawal of 274 BTC (32 million dollars) by whales from Binance. Large holders are hoarding coins while thieves are stealing them. Market sentiment is shifting from panic to greed, with an index of 68. It is recommended that everyone use hardware wallets for protection.
