โ ๏ธ CRYPTO PANIC on Steam: A simple game turned into a Trojan horse stealing your wallets! ๐ฎ๐๐ต
โ๏ธPlay โ and lose it all?
The Steam game Chemia was exposed as a front for a stealth cyberattack โ packed with malware designed to steal seed phrases and private keys. MetaMask, Trust Wallet, browsers, and even password managers were compromised. ๐โ ๏ธ
๐พ Behind the attack is EncryptHub (Larva-208) โ one of the most aggressive hacker groups of 2025.
๐ฃ The game carried three powerful stealers:
๐ด Hijack Loader โ to inject malware
๐ด Fickle Stealer โ to extract browser data
๐ด Vidar Stealer โ to hunt down crypto wallets
๐ฏ Their goal? Drain your digital life โ from saved passwords to full access to crypto holdings.
๐งน Steam has already removed Chemia from the platform, but the threat is far from over.
This isnโt the first time. Previously discovered infected games include:
๐ซ Sniper: Phantomโs Resolution
๐ดโโ ๏ธ PirateFi
๐ฅ Why this matters:
๐ฎ Gaming is the new frontier for crypto theft. Hackers are weaponizing trusted platforms to infect your device and drain your wallets.
๐ง Crypto security tip:
Never trust unknown apps โ even if they look like "just another Steam game."
๐ Run a security scan, check your browser extensions, and clear your startup apps.
๐ฅ And remember: your wallet is only as safe as your seed phrase.
