#钱包安全风险与防护 Polymarket's recent incident is worth a close look. A third-party authentication vulnerability led to the theft of user accounts registered with Magic Labs. This detail is crucial—Magic Labs primarily serves crypto newcomers, who often have weak security awareness and thus become prime targets for attacks.

From an on-chain security perspective, the issue isn't with Polymarket itself but reveals a common risk: when relying on third-party custodial or authentication services, your asset security ultimately depends on the weakest link in the entire chain. Polymarket has not disclosed the number of affected users or the extent of losses, which is also worth noting—usually indicating a significant impact.

Practical advice: If you use email login to generate non-custodial wallets, regularly check on-chain activity; consider self-custody or multi-signature solutions for large assets; even relatively well-known service providers should regularly review their security updates. This incident essentially reflects the contradiction between centralized authentication and decentralized assets—convenience often comes with risk.
