This morning, a somewhat significant incident occurred—the Trust Wallet browser extension had a security vulnerability. According to an official emergency announcement, version 2.68 has obvious security risks. Users of this version need to act quickly: immediately disable the extension and upgrade to version 2.69 through the official Chrome Web Store channel.

It may sound like no big deal, but data from on-chain detective ZachXBT highlights the severity of the issue—this vulnerability led to the direct theft of funds from hundreds of users, with total losses reaching at least $6 million. This is not a small amount.

After the incident was exposed, the owner of a major exchange also stepped forward to sound the alarm, emphasizing that users must strictly follow the official security guidelines. It’s best not to delay—take action now to protect your assets.

So, if you are still using this version, now is the time to act—don’t wait, don’t take chances. Disable the extension and upgrade; that’s the proper course of action.

$6,000,000 lost, that must hurt a lot Hurry up and upgrade, don't become the next victim of a scam 2.68 is really amazing, those who haven't updated yet are truly brave Got phished again this time, wallet security really needs to be taken seriously Extensions can't be fully protected, you need to keep an eye on them at all times Already said not to be greedy and use third-party services, now it's too late

ngl this is exactly the kind of protocol vulnerability that separates the smart money from the rekt. 600m in losses? that's not a bug, that's a systemic risk wake-up call nobody wanted to hear.

I'll be straightforward with you, this is not a joke this time, 6 million USD is gone just like that. Version 2.68, uninstall quickly, really don't hesitate. Another wallet disaster, this circle is truly full of dangers. How are there still people willing to use the old version? Isn't that asking for death? Upgrading immediately can save your life, hesitation just means paying tuition. This is what true rug pulling looks like, even more ruthless than some coins directly pumping. Trust Wallet is also starting to have issues, I even doubt what else can be trusted. Version 2.69 can be used with confidence, the official response this time was quite quick. The most feared is this silent theft, you can't react in time. 6 million USD, how many people have gone bankrupt as a result? Upgrading takes only two minutes, why do some people still not take it seriously?
