Recently, there have been incidents in the circle again, which made me realize a harsh reality: in the crypto world, your money might be less secure than in traditional finance.

Why? Because as long as thieves get your mnemonic phrase or force you to transfer coins from an exchange, they can sweep away all your assets in a few minutes. No review, no interception, on-chain transfers are seamless.

Compare this with traditional banks—large transfers? Trigger risk control. Remote remittance? Verification is needed. The system automatically blocks suspicious operations. But in cryptocurrency? Once your private key is leaked, your assets are instantly zeroed out, with no chance of recovery.

So those who have made money in the circle really need to learn to stay low-profile. Showing off wealth? Dangerous. Getting too close to fans? Risky. Privacy protection isn't pretentious; it's a survival skill.

Of course, the more common threat is still technical—hacker attacks. A few days ago, a big V in the circle had their WeChat hacked, showing that even the top players can have a fall.

The freedom of the crypto world is true freedom, but the price is that you are fully responsible for your own asset security. This double-edged sword, are you holding it steady?
