Holding Bitcoin, installing antivirus software, and using a password manager have one thing in common: they all seem simple at first glance, but putting them into practice steadily is still very difficult. Achieving unity of knowledge and action in the virtual world is one of the hardest things...

Stance influences or even determines individual emotions and judgments. For example, after an incident of theft or fraud occurs, our starting point is to help the victim minimize losses and recover damages in a timely manner. We may unite as many resources as possible to respond, even if this approach appears very centralized.

I respect those who defend the spirit of decentralization, provided that if this person is stolen from, they do not have the thought or action to use centralized power.

Evil doers break the rules first, and you still help them think? Do you have to confuse yourself and others with hypocrisy?

What is the correct approach? If you truly want to defend the spirit of decentralization in a system, you cannot just shout 'don't be evil,' but should design it so that it 'can't be evil.' If a security incident really occurs, no one should be able to use centralized power to intervene, or the cost of doing so should be prohibitively high. Therefore, even if there is a thought of using centralized power, it cannot be executed.

As I said, this is a dark forest; learn more about security knowledge to arm yourself, at least to raise the threshold for being hacked.

Exposing some fraudulent gangs of fake security companies:

@JascottRecovery @SHIELDHUNTER_PR @BCRescue_ @ben__ethh

These are criminal gangs that claim to help users solve security issues like wallet theft, only to cause further harm to the users...

However, this kind of exposure is just a temporary fix... I hope everyone stays safe from theft, and if you accidentally get stolen from, please remain calm and don’t easily trust anyone again.

A security suggestion: if your funds are stolen, it's best to make the wallet address public (if you're worried about privacy, you can appropriately obscure some characters in the middle), or at least learn from the player below, who disclosed the hacker's address.

Why is there this suggestion? It's because of another stolen user's case, which had law enforcement involvement. During the investigation, it was found that the hacker's address was linked to this player, and they almost continued the investigation... I ruled out this player's suspicion through various historical data; otherwise, it could have been troublesome.

Some hackers nowadays particularly like to frame others, and you will not only bear the pain of having your funds stolen, but you may also have to cooperate with subsequent law enforcement investigations... Being treated as a suspect is also not pleasant...

Another small group of mnemonics/private keys were leaked and stolen. The cause of the leak is unknown. The hacker address is:
0x9AB593baC174B4B792be8482b760Ce632d16392a

At present, the profit is not much. Nearly 200 wallet addresses were stolen. There are two victims seeking help. As shown in the picture, these ENS and Twitter users are stolen. It's a big holiday, everyone's safety first...
