🔒Top 9 Cryptocurrency Hardware Wallets of 2025 🔒
After seeing the Bybit team hacked for $1.4B, Radiant Capital hacked for $50M, and many other teams hacked due to not verifying signed data, I wanted to find out:
Which wallet does it best? 👇
We review all 9 in this thread!

The Safe site was actually compromised!!!
We originally speculated that it was the exchange user's computers that were hacked, but it looks like it was the Safe UI the whole time!
The fix is still the same, use the Cyfrin/safe_tx_hashes tool.

The reason that myself & frenk get so fired up over private keys in plaintext is that we've seen new developers & seasoned developers lose hundreds of thousands of dollars.
- New developers follow documentation and don't realize the consequences
- Seasoned developers slip up
We need to get in the habit of keeping our keys encrypted, just like we got in the habit of brushing our teeth.
Unless you don't brush your teeth, in which case... ew.
Here is the best place to stick your private key👇

I'm sorry.
I should have told you this knowledge could save you $1.4B not $50M.

- Wrong Python version?
- Wrong virtual environment?
- Forgot a virtual environment?
- Package dependencies giving you issues?

Private key leaks were the number 1 attack vector of 2024, and 2025 so far.

How do you all use Farcaster with Twitter?
Do you have like an "auto publish on twitter" feature of farcaster?

I spent 2 hours today in 23° F (-5° C) onboarding as many people as possible in Boston to cryptocurrency.
I gave away ~$225 in Ethereum using:
- ZKSync Era's Clave (AA Wallet)
- onchaingift / Coinbase Wallet / Base L2
All while learning how much Boston knows about crypto. 👇

How do you know what you're signing on your hardware wallet is correct?
Asking this question could have saved Radiant Captial $50M last year, and could save you even more.
If you're on a security council, DAO, or you own a hardware wallet, you need to know this 👇

I'd like to place a $1,000 USDC bounty on this issue.

If you want to start working on this before someone else, tag me, with a list of relevant python experience and I'll update the ticket to inform others that you're working on it.

LinkedIn deactivated my account for a few days for my last video bringing awareness to arbitrage bot scams.
I’m a bit torn about it.
On the one hand, I like how they have strict guidelines, reduce bots, and reduce scams on LinkedIn.
On the other hand, ok, I guess let the hackers “do their thing”?
I didn’t want to make a video that said “watch out for hackers” because that’s boring. I’ve had so many comments from people who actually clicked on it for the passive income - and those are exactly the people who would get scammed! So I wanted to scam them into… learning?
Now they’ve said this is my final and only warning before they delete my account if I slip up again.
Unironically why we need decentralized social media.

In the future, every smart contract developer is also a security researcher.
The attack surface is too large for people to have security be considered only during the audit.

We should all be very tuned in to how the Orbit Bridge was hacked.
Knowing how most of their private keys were leaked will give us insight into more ways we shouldn’t set up a multi-sig.

According to popular theory, there are three types of learners out there:
- visual
- auditory
- kinesthetic
However, popular theory is wrong, and in fact, this myth has been consistently debunked.
Most people learn pretty similar to each other;
More practice == More better

@vitalik.eth’s latest blog has me both incredibly excited and frustrated at the same time.
The future of web3 (maybe we call it the ether-verse now?) is soooo bright… but there is so much crap people have to wade through.

So is this right?
“I got a farcaster”

“I’m on warpcaster”
Someone plz educate me
