#私钥与助记词被盗 Seeing the security incident at Trust Wallet these days has truly been a heavy weight on my heart. The loss of over 6 million USD behind this event is the result of countless users having their plans disrupted during Christmas. I want to discuss the essence of this incident with everyone.



Hackers directly tampered with wallet code to obtain mnemonics and private keys when users unlocked their wallets—what does this mean? It means your wallet password is no longer the final line of defense. Attackers even use legitimate analysis tools to disguise malicious requests, silently stealing information. The level of professionalism here tells us that wallet security is no longer just about "storing assets on reputable platforms."

I want to emphasize three points:

**First, multi-chain asset allocation is essential.** Don’t keep all your assets in one wallet. Distribute them across multiple wallets and addresses so that even if one is compromised, your entire holdings won’t be lost. This is similar to diversifying an investment portfolio to manage risk.

**Second, regular checks and updates are not optional.** Upgrade to the latest version immediately, delete suspicious versions, and periodically verify your asset status—these seemingly tedious tasks are actually building a defense for your assets.

**Third, a long-term mindset is most valuable during difficult times.** When facing sudden risks, staying calm and composed is more important than any operation. Disconnect from the internet for troubleshooting, back up your private keys, and transfer assets gradually—avoid hasty decisions.

Asset security is not just a technical issue but a matter of lifestyle habits. We need to treat caution as normal and make security awareness as natural as breathing.
