Recently, Trust Wallet exposed a serious issue. The official has confirmed that version 2.68 of its browser extension has a security vulnerability. If you are still using this version, you should disable it immediately and not wait for something to happen.
Investigations show that this is not just a simple bug; it appears to be a supply chain attack — someone has embedded malicious code into the extension. When users unlock their wallets, the mnemonic phrase is quietly sent to the hacker's site. Sounds pretty scary, right? According to preliminary statistics, this incident has already caused users to lose over $6 million.
The official recommended approach is clear: upgrade to version 2.69 via the official link on the Chrome Web Store. This new version should have fixed the vulnerability. If you are using a different version of the wallet, don’t panic, but it’s still advised to check your extension version number. The entire industry is closely monitoring this situation, and related investigations are ongoing. In short, if you can respond promptly, don’t delay.

Oh my god, version 2.68 got hit directly? Supply chain attack? These people are really outrageous.
Upgrade quickly, don't ask why, just know that 6 million USD is gone.
Damn, this time it's no small matter. Even the seed phrase can be stolen, who can withstand this?
