#加密钱包安全 Seeing the $7 million hack of Trust Wallet, my first thought was Mt. Gox in 2014. Back then, it was also a security breach at the exchange level, losing 850,000 Bitcoins overnight, causing the entire industry to panic. Many people said that was the end of crypto assets, but here we are.

This time, Trust Wallet’s response actually reflects the industry’s growth over the past ten years. CZ directly stated that they would cover all losses, something unimaginable in the early days. During Mt. Gox, users waited years to receive partial compensation. Trust is built this way—tested repeatedly through crisis management.

But I have to be honest, the fundamental issues of security vulnerabilities haven't disappeared. From the detail of wallet extension tampering, the risk point is no longer just a single entry point but the entire supply chain. It reminds me of the ICO chaos in 2017, when everyone thought smart contracts would make everything safe. But then code bugs, front-end tampering, private key management issues kept emerging.

The key is cultivating user habits. No matter how detailed the official upgrade steps are, they are just emergency measures. The real defense lies in personal caution—don't connect your wallet on unfamiliar networks, don't authorize unknown applications, regularly check extension versions. These basic practices are often the easiest to overlook.

Historically, after major incidents, there’s usually a surge in demand for security tools and audits, and this time should be no different. But I’m more concerned about whether we’ve truly learned something the next time a crisis hits.
