Incredible! Korea's tax office has directly published a photo of a hardware wallet's mnemonic phrase in a press release. The result? Nearly $480 million in assets were hacked within a few days.



University blockchain researchers say this is the result of a lack of basic cybersecurity knowledge. On the night of the 27th, 400 million PRTG tokens were transferred to an unknown address. Such mnemonic phrases should never be published — everyone knows that!

Government agencies should also follow these basic security rules. Now, a huge amount of national assets has been lost. How could such a mistake happen?
