📜How are crypto wallets hacked or what is brute force?
🪙Any crypto wallet can be hacked using the brute force method, when they simply try many options for the private key and finally guess.
🪙They call it brute force, but the probability of such an event is incredibly low and for this reason people have been holding BTC for 10 years or more at one address and it is not going anywhere.
But sometimes when creating a wallet, random crashes and creates keys with a lot of zeros. Such wallets are called Weak Address and it will take several hours to hack them. To avoid losing your cryptocurrency, always check your newly created wallet for Weak Address.
