Specter: Over $40 million in cryptocurrency was stolen last week in three incidents

According to on-chain detective Specter, last week there were 3 independent incidents involving over $40 million in stolen cryptocurrency, with each victim losing tens of millions of dollars. Specter stated that a large amount of funds entered the market last week, and social engineering, phishing links, and wallet theft scams continue to persist.

Specter reminds that cryptocurrency is not an industry where one can simply buy assets and ignore them; asset security is part of the investment, and one should pay attention to the latest attack incidents, wallet exploitations, and phishing activities in a timely manner. If not active on crypto Twitter or security forums, one should at least follow a reliable source that continuously publishes security updates.
