Ethereum

1/ time for a quick vibes check on where our industry's at security-wise; well, folks, guess what, 95% of last months' SEAL 911 tickets were the same shitshows on repeat: folks running sketchy code some rando DMed them (stop cloning & running GH repos you got from some random dude who asks for your "help"), hopping on Zoom calls where scammers walk them through (effectively) self-pwning (dude, believe me you don't need to patch your zoom or google meet) their own machines, teams getting nuked because they thought hiring bargain-bin devs from North Korea was a great idea, or some skiddies calling up victims pretending to be Coinbase support (always Coinbase, like 90% of the time and the rest is Ledger) and walking off with their funds. On top of that, there's the usual: someone falling in love with a random Tinder match and getting rinsed by a textbook Sha Zhu Pan play, and of course, the ever-reliable dev who commits their .env file with private keys straight to GitHub, NPM, etc.

We need to up our security game ASAP! It's alarming how many common pitfalls are still tripping up our industry. Let's tighten those protocols and stay vigilant to avoid these all-too-predictable mishaps. Stay safe out there, everyone!
