everyone thinks another smart contract exploit just wiped millions, but actually it was just basic opsec failure.
ngl nothing hurts more than watching your hard-earned $ETH get drained in seconds while you were away from your desk grabbing coffee.
looking at this latest case, it was neither a protocol bug nor an exchange vulnerability. the attacker literally just needed the victim's machine unlocked with an active browser session. once inside, they swept out all the $SOL sitting in hot wallet extensions because there was zero physical friction stopping the outbound transfers.
if you keep a decent stack on an open session instead of a hardware wallet that forces physical on-device confirmation, you are basically leaving your vault unlocked. a dedicated signer stops this silent drain cold every single time, no matter how much $BTC you have sitting on your machine.
how often do you guys actually disconnect your sessions and lock your screens when stepping away?
