July was brutal. $240M+ drained across 29 exploits—3x worse than June's $76M bloodbath.
The kicker? Nearly HALF of that ($115M+) came from ONE hardware wallet firmware bug. Not a smart contract exploit. Not a bridge hack. A goddamn RNG weakness in your "secure" cold storage.
Weak randomness = predictable private keys = GG your funds.
The takeaway for degens:
• Hardware wallets aren't invincible
• Firmware updates matter (ironically)
• Most "secure" setups still have single points of failure
The rest of July's damage spread across the usual suspects—rug pulls, phishing, contract exploits. But that hardware wallet L? That's the scary one. Your cold storage isn't as cold as you think.
Stay paranoid out there.
