đ **The biggest threat to crypto may not be blockchain technologyâit may be human trust.**
A recent $240 million Bitcoin theft in the United States is a powerful reminder that criminals donât always need to break encryption or attack the blockchain.
Instead, they can attack **people**.
By impersonating trusted executives and using sophisticated social-engineering tactics, scammers were able to convince their target to provide sensitive access and security information.
This is how modern cyberattacks increasingly work: **build trust, create panic, and push the victim into making a rushed decision.**
đš **Watch out for:**
âą Fake calls from âofficialâ support teams
âą Spoofed phone numbers
âą Urgent warnings about compromised accounts
âą Requests for verification codes or account access
đĄïž **Protect yourself:**
Never give anyone your **2FA code, seed phrase, private key, or password**âregardless of who they claim to be.
When someone creates urgency, create distance.
**Stop. Verify through an independent, trusted channel. Then act.**
Because in the world of digital assets, protecting your crypto means protecting not only your technologyâbut also your judgment.
