#钱包安全漏洞 Trust Wallet extension wallet was hacked, and the details are indeed quite severe. $6 million was lost, and the timeline is frighteningly clear—preparations began on December 8th, a backdoor was implanted on the 22nd, and transfers started on Christmas Day. This guy clearly didn't act on a whim.

The key point is the professionalism of the attack methods. Instead of poisoning npm packages, they directly modified the source code, indicating a deep familiarity with Trust Wallet's internal workings. They traversed all wallets, obtained mnemonics during unlocking, and disguised as analysis services to send data to malicious servers—this is standard APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) tactics, not random hacking.

For us copy traders, this is a hard lesson: **Even the best trading accounts need proper protection**. Many copy traders have been burned due to wallet security issues. I agree with the recommended approach—disconnect from the internet immediately for troubleshooting, export private keys and uninstall the wallet, then transfer funds to other wallets. Never think "luck won't be that bad"—this is never about probability; once it happens, it's total loss.

Currently, Trust Wallet has released version 2.69 to fix the issue, but this incident reminds us: the convenience and security of hot wallets are always a trade-off. If you hold long-term positions or large sums, hardware wallets or cold storage are the right choices. Risk management isn't just about trading strategies; how you store your funds is the first line of defense.
