My main wallet was hacked some time ago. Fortunately, I was on a break during that period and not active on the chain, and I didn't store too much funds in the account. I dodged a bullet.

Looking back now, it was probably due to a previous DeFi interaction or bot authorization issue. Funds were transferred to an address controlled by the hacker, which is hard to prevent.

I want to ask everyone, have you encountered similar situations? How did you handle them? Especially cases where the theft was through address authorization. It feels like this kind of risk is more covert, and many people don't pay enough attention to the security of smart contract authorizations.

I recommend everyone regularly check their wallet's authorization records and revoke unnecessary permissions in time. Be very cautious with on-chain operations.

According to on-chain data, I have long studied the fund flow patterns of this type of authorization vulnerability. The typical wash trading method involves hacker addresses often cycling through three to five trading pairs.

Buddy, your luck is really good, otherwise you'd be losing a lot. I'm numb, just afraid of those silent authorization traps. I've been scammed too, so I immediately revoked all permissions. Now I think for three seconds before operating. That's why I only use cold wallets now and avoid those flashy bots. Really, the biggest enemy of DeFi is that your hands are too fast and your brain can't keep up. Sometimes I even wonder if I should leave this circle. No matter how good the smart contract audit is, it’s useless; in the end, it all depends on whether you have a brain. Next time you encounter unfamiliar permissions, ask clearly. Better to miss an opportunity than get cut. This kind of lesson is the most expensive, but also the most effective.
