"SlowMist, a leading blockchain security company, has released a report for the second quarter of 2024. It analyzes cryptocurrency thefts. In the second quarter, the MistTrack team received 467 reports of funds being stolen, freezing approximately $20.66 million across 13 platforms. 📉

Main threats:

1. Private key leaks: Users often store keys in cloud services, which makes them vulnerable to attacks and phishing.

2. Phishing: especially common through malicious links in the comments under tweets of famous projects.

3. Fraud: The most common type is “honey pot” schemes, where victims are lured with promises of high returns on new tokens.

SlowMist recommends using resources like Scam Sniffer to prevent phishing attempts and increase awareness."
