BTCCSquare news:

Trust Wallet's Chrome extension version 2.68 was compromised during the holidays, resulting in unauthorized withdrawals totaling over $6 million. The breach, detected on December 25, prompted immediate action from the company. Users were advised to disable the affected version and upgrade to the patched 2.69 release.

The exploit specifically targeted the Chrome extension—mobile apps and other browser extensions remained unaffected. Trust Wallet has yet to disclose the root cause but confirmed an ongoing investigation. Security analysts highlight this as a cautionary tale for hot wallet vulnerabilities during periods of reduced operational vigilance.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
