Attention when going to Singapore to attend Token2049: don’t connect to public WiFi!
I just saw another person get caught—connected to the venue’s WiFi and their wallet was immediately stolen. In places like this where crypto people gather in crowds, hackers have long set up phishing traps waiting for you.
I know a guy: a few years ago he joined a crypto meetup and connected to a WiFi network. He lost over $4 million—back then Bitcoin was still under $20,000.
When you go to attend: get your data SIM in advance, turn on your own hotspot, and don’t touch public WiFi. Saving a few dollars on data is nothing compared to losing your entire wallet.
