Trust Wallet experienced a serious theft incident due to a system security vulnerability, with approximately $8.5 million worth of assets lost from 2,520 wallet addresses. The official has confirmed the incident and initiated a compensation process—affected users can submit applications through official support channels to receive appropriate compensation. This security incident in cryptocurrency assets serves as a reminder to users: choosing wallet products with comprehensive risk control mechanisms and emergency compensation commitments is crucial.

Here we go again? Trust Wallet really pulled out this time, and 8.5 million is gone just like that. Compensation process? It looks like a joke to me. We'll be waiting for compensation until the Year of the Monkey and the Year of the Horse.

Here we go again, can Trust Wallet also be hacked? It seems that big wallets are not very secure. --- $8.5 million was lost directly. How many people’s mental state must have collapsed... Is the official compensation reliable? --- You still have to keep your private keys yourself. These custodial wallets are really untrustworthy. --- Will the compensation process be another slow and dragging operation... --- No wonder some people still use hardware wallets; it’s not without reason. --- How many people will learn a lesson from this explosion? They’re all the same. --- Trust’s own vulnerabilities, you say about other wallets? It’s all a matter of time. --- It should have been alert enough earlier, but most people still prioritize convenience. --- 2520 wallets... How long will it take to settle this matter?

$8.5 million is gone just like that. Luckily, Trust Wallet dares to compensate, or else I would really be crying my eyes out.

Reliable wallets should all learn from this compensation mechanism, otherwise they're no different from paper wallets.

8.5 million USD, now trust wallet's credibility is really bankrupt --- Both wallets and vulnerabilities, these days no one dares to store coins properly --- Compensation process? Haha, how many have really been compensated --- 2520 wallets evaporated overnight, luckily trust official still willing to acknowledge it --- Choosing any wallet is useless, the key is to be more cautious oneself --- My coins are inside, now just waiting to see how they will compensate --- Frequent security vulnerabilities, really should reconsider switching wallets --- After this incident, it feels like the entire ecosystem is a bit unstable --- The cost of 8.5 million USD just to learn a lesson, too expensive --- The compensation process has started, sounds good, but I'm afraid it's just another official excuse
