#钱包安全威胁 Trust Wallet is in the news again. Version 2.68 of the browser extension has been found to have security vulnerabilities, resulting in hundreds of users being hacked and losses exceeding $6 million. When I saw this news, I wasn't really surprised because it has become a pattern—every so often, a major wallet plugin is exposed for security issues.

But upon closer inspection of the details, I realized the real warning signs are not here. Major wallets like Trust Wallet, MetaMask, and Phantom don't actually have many direct official vulnerabilities. So what is the real killer? Fake software and phishing attacks. Data shows that many users are hacked not because the official plugins have issues, but because they downloaded counterfeit versions or were tricked into authorizing malicious contracts via phishing links.

My experience is this: don’t rely on some ultimate security solution—that simply doesn’t exist. Instead of obsessing over the plugins themselves, focus on a few simple but deadly details—only download from the official Chrome Web Store, never click on unfamiliar links, and never authorize wallet connections on any website. Many seasoned users get caught out by these seemingly small mistakes. The current on-chain environment is much more complex than before, and hackers’ deception methods are constantly evolving. To survive longer, you need to be more cautious than they are.
