EVERY CRYPTO HOLDER SHOULD READ THIS Your crypto may be at risk ➺ A major security issue is happening in the JavaScript software world. ➺ A trusted developer's account on NPM (a platform where JavaScript code is shared) was hacked. ➺ The hacker added harmful code to some widely used software packages, which have been downloaded over 1 billion times. ➺ This means many websites and apps could be affected. ➺ The harmful code secretly changes crypto wallet addresses during transactions, stealing money from users. What you can do: ► If you use a hardware wallet (a physical device for storing crypto), carefully check every transaction before approving it. This keeps you safe. ► If you use a software wallet (an app or program), avoid making any crypto transactions for now. ► It’s not yet clear if the hacker is also stealing private keys (like passwords) from software wallets. Stay cautious until the issue is resolved.
