Did you know that the value lost by investors and traders in the field of#digital_currenciesdue to hacking projects is $9.11B billion 😱
The 5 most hacked projects and protocols:
Ronin: $642M million
Poly Network: $611M million
Binance Bridge: $570M million
FTX: $450M million
Wormhole: $326M million
I noticed that most of the projects that were hacked were due to leaking private keys (Private key Compromised) 🤔
Leaking or accessing private keys can be done in several ways. Let me explain some of them to you:
A hacker can create a site similar to the original site of a project by simply giving permission from the wallet to the site. Your coins are delivered to it
Viruses and malware are able to steal your private keys that you have stored on your laptop
For projects, one of the team may have access For keys and asset theft
There are many other ways if I explain them we will take a long time. The important thing is not to put your money in one wallet
or in one project and protocol and always keep the keys on a piece of paper in a safe place, it is better than storing them in the Notes application and double check the sites you enter 😁
Sorry if I took a long time
