#CryptoSecurity101 đ Crypto Under Attack: Hacks & Wrench Threats on the Rise
The crypto world is facing a two-front war â one digital, one physical.
đš Online, cybercriminals (many linked to North Korea) are behind 60%+ of global crypto thefts, including a stunning $1.5 billion Ethereum breach. Vulnerabilities in DeFi protocols, wallets, and exchanges are being exploited with surgical precision.
đ ïž Offline, a darker trend is emerging: wrench attacks. These are physical assaults or threats used to extract private keys directly from holders â no hacking required. When criminals skip the code and go straight for the person, no amount of cybersecurity can save you.
As crypto grows more valuable, it becomes a bigger target. Your best defense:
Cold wallets > hot wallets
Stay low-profile about your holdings
Be smart about both digital hygiene and real-world safety
In crypto, itâs not paranoia â itâs protocol. Stay sharp. Stay safe. đ
