#Trust Wallet黑客事件 Seeing this Trust Wallet incident, I felt an inexplicable wave of fear. Over 6 million USD just disappeared, and the official version became a hacker backdoor. What does this imply? It shows that even the most reputable wallets are not absolutely secure.

The attacker started laying the groundwork as early as December 8th, only beginning to transfer funds around Christmas. This patience reminds me of those carefully planned exit schemes—first building trust, then striking hard. The most heartbreaking part is that the developer’s device or code repository might already be compromised, which means the root of the problem is not on the ordinary user’s side.

After experiencing several risk events, I’ve summarized these lessons: First, even the most well-known projects need to diversify risks and not put all their chips in one basket; second, the probability of an official version having issues is low, but once it does, the entire system collapses; third, for the most critical assets, it’s better to go through extra verification steps than to seek convenience.

The most alarming aspect of this incident is that it reminds us of a harsh reality—there is no absolute safe haven in this ecosystem. Instead of worrying every day about which wallet might have a problem, it’s better to change your strategy now: regularly review your asset allocation, diversify holdings across multiple chains and accounts, and verify through official channels before updating software. Living longer is far more important than earning quickly.
