#策略性加码BTC Recently, a certain Web3 ecosystem experienced a network vulnerability. Attackers used cross-chain channels to forge tokens and carry out thefts, with a single theft amounting to as much as $3.9 million. Fortunately, the attack was limited in scope, and normal user assets were not affected.
The ecosystem responded quickly — the governance committee immediately activated emergency plans, coordinated with exchanges to freeze and recover the fake tokens that had entered major platforms, and implemented isolation measures on the blockchain layer. The market order for mainstream tokens like $BTC and $BNB remained unaffected.
According to the latest announcement, those forged tokens will be permanently destroyed on January 30. More notably, the foundation has revoked the temporary expanded permissions of the governance committee, marking the end of this round of emergency response. The ecosystem will continue to promote vulnerability fixes and security upgrades to further strengthen the protection level of the cross-chain token mechanism. Such incidents also serve as a reminder for all participants to pay attention to wallet security and token verification.

$3.9 million just like that? Luckily reacted quickly, or it would have exploded.
---
Cross-chain security definitely needs attention, got hit with another loophole.
---
Anyway, I’ve long lost trust in those small ecosystems. Luckily, it didn’t spread this time.
---
Wait, what does it mean to revoke permissions? Who was managing it before?
---
The destruction date is set. This operation is still considered standard, right?
---
Why is it another cross-chain issue? When can this broken problem be truly solved?
---
Fortunately, only $3.9 million. The big cases in the crypto world are so numerous they numb you.
---
Wallet security has been talked about so many times, yet some still fall for it.

Wow, $3.9 million just disappeared... Luckily it didn't affect regular players, or it would be another blood and tears story.
---
The response speed is pretty good; the governance committee really has some skills.
---
It's another cross-chain security issue. It seems these two words are now high-frequency terms.
---
Why is it always some ecosystem having problems? Why doesn't anyone solve it at the source?
---
Burned on January 30th. At least this time it didn't end in a cliffhanger. Thumbs up.
---
Wallet security, verification... easier said than done. How many have actually done it well?
---
As long as the mainstream coins stay stable, the rest probably shouldn't be touched too much.

$3.9 million just gone like that, that's pretty intense... But the response was indeed quick, and the exchange's cooperation in freezing was a key step.
Once again, it proves that wallet security is more important than anything else. This is no joke.
Wait, how long will it take to fix this ecosystem vulnerability? Feels like the cross-chain pitfalls are never-ending.
Revoking permissions is a good move to prevent power from getting out of control... Speaking of which, the more of these incidents happen, the more attractive BTC becomes.
Might as well just do a one-click all-in on BTC and avoid these nuisances.

Losing $3.9 million is just that—lost. Anyway, we’re not the ones who got hacked.
---
This reaction speed is pretty impressive; the freeze was lightning-fast, much more reliable than some ecosystems.
---
Cross-chain matters really need attention. Verify everything before moving funds, everyone.
---
Wait, is revoking permissions a good thing? Feels like this ecosystem still has some self-restraint.
---
I don’t understand the operation of permanent destruction. How is it destroyed? How is it deleted on-chain?
---
Actually, putting $3.9 million into the ecosystem’s total pool is still okay. It’s scary, but it didn’t cause a collapse.
---
Wallet security is a well-worn topic, but how many can really do it well?
---
Mainstream coins are fine as long as there are no issues. For other weird coins, it doesn’t hurt to tinker.

3.9 million is indeed a lot, but it's still considered lucky compared to some projects that got hacked... Quick reactions are the key to winning.
---
Cross-chain vulnerabilities are back again. When will we truly achieve security? I'm tired.
---
Regarding token verification, you need to pay attention yourself; you can't rely entirely on the project team.
---
They're just trying to shift the blame to hackers. They should review their own code.
---
The destruction date has been set, at least there's some transparency, better than some projects.
---
Three million nine hundred thousand exchanged for a safety lesson. Web3 is still too young.
---
The emergency freeze process worked well, but it still can't prevent insiders.
---
Once again, cross-chain issues caused trouble. I told you these things are risky.
---
Fortunately, retail investors weren't affected, or it would have been another script of cutting leeks.
