In the past couple of days, I’ve been seeing yet more “gossip” about cross-chain bridges getting hacked. To be blunt, a lot of the time it’s not that the tech is especially advanced—it’s that someone just slips up and signs an authorization with one hand, takes a photo of the seed phrase, or clicks into a phishing site that looks exactly identical.



As for seed phrases, I’m completely done with using cloud drives or pasting them into chat boxes. I write them down on paper, stash them away—annoying, sure, but safer.

Signature authorizations are absolutely a red line: if you don’t understand it, don’t sign. And if you can use a one-time authorization, don’t give unlimited allowance. Honestly, I’d rather make a little less money than end up as a “classroom case.”

And about oracle-type “abnormal quotes”—everyone’s saying “wait for confirmation” these days, and honestly that’s pretty realistic. Don’t rush in. Sometimes the chain will just suddenly give you a lesson…

As for how you usually prevent phishing, I’d really like to hear your methods.
