A certain wallet service platform recently announced a serious security incident. According to official statements, the root cause of this incident was a operational vulnerability during the data center expansion and migration process, which led to the leakage of some users' wallet information. After the incident occurred, the platform quickly isolated the affected users' assets in an emergency attempt to prevent further losses.

Unfortunately, hackers have successfully cracked the leaked data and have begun large-scale transfers of user assets. Since some users continue to use their previous wallet addresses for transactions, this has given hackers an opportunity. Currently, the total direct economic loss from the incident is approximately $250,000.

The platform has initiated a user compensation plan, and related compensation applications have been mostly distributed. This incident serves as a reminder to all users: during sensitive periods such as data migration and system upgrades, it is important to strengthen account security, promptly update wallet passwords, enable two-factor authentication, and adopt other protective measures.

Another data center migration disaster, I really can't hold it together this time. Daring to operate wallets like this, I'm convinced. Losing $250,000 is the end of the story? The platform's move here is a bit outrageous. I told you early on to enable two-factor authentication, but some people just wouldn't listen. These hackers are really efficient; as soon as data leaks, they immediately transfer funds, making it hard to defend against. The compensation plan sounds good, but it all depends on whether it can be truly implemented. In the future, I need to be more cautious during wallet migrations.

Data center migration can also go wrong, unbelievable... $250,000 just lost like that. Brothers, have the compensations been fully provided? Feels like this operation was a bit careless. Still the same advice, managing your own wallet is the way to go, don’t put all your eggs in one basket. I enabled two-factor authentication a long time ago, just worried there might be other vulnerabilities that haven't been exposed yet. How long has this been exposed? Are there still many people using this platform now? Honestly, the hacker’s move was brilliant, directly targeting those still using the old address, pretty ruthless. During migration, withdrawals shouldn’t have been disabled; why allow continued trading? That logic doesn’t add up.

Once again, a data center migration causes issues. When will this routine ever change? It's really $250,000 gone, and users still have to shoulder the blame and update passwords themselves. Interesting. Hackers are so rampant, the platform's emergency response really can't keep up. The compensation plan sounds good, but trust has already hit zero. Once again, operational vulnerabilities—call it human error at best. Such incidents should be fined. It's not clear how the $250,000 was compensated; it feels like they're shifting the blame back to the users. Why is it always a problem during the migration process? Couldn't such risks have been anticipated in advance? So I have to wait passively for the official response; might as well switch wallets myself. This is why people always say that self-custody wallets are the safest—giving your assets to the platform is just a gamble on their integrity.

Another one? Even data center expansion can go wrong. How do you say about this operation? As soon as the compensation plan is issued, it's over? $250,000 is gone just like that? Truly the internet generation, users who don't even change their passwords really dare to play Didn't this platform have issues a couple of years ago? Why are people still using it?

Once again, a data center migration disaster. Who dares to touch their wallet these days? Can't even afford to lose 250,000. When will the platform learn to do things properly? What’s the use of two-factor authentication? The key issue is that I still can't trust these platforms. Compensation plan, just say it and it will be issued. I don’t believe you. I've always said that centralized wallets are not worth it; self-protection is more reliable. This time, a bunch of people will probably change their passwords and fuss around for a long time. Hackers have already started, and you're only isolating now. It's a bit late, brother.
