#加密资产安全 The security of Bitcoin is becoming increasingly intense. First, the quantum computing threat caused a huge buzz, claiming that once Satoshi Nakamoto's 1 million BTC are cracked, the market would crash to $3. As a result, OGs said they weren't worried at all and were actually preparing to buy the dip. But that's not even the most outrageous— the US government, by cracking weak random number generators, directly confiscated $15 billion worth of Bitcoin, which is truly hardcore.

Even more astonishing is the story behind it. From 2019 to 2020, Lubian mining pool used a vulnerable pseudo-random algorithm, making the private keys for over 53,500 BTC susceptible to brute-force attacks. At the end of 2020, they transferred out 136,951 BTC in one go, and no one realized it was theft at the time. It wasn't until 2023, when similar vulnerabilities appeared in other projects, that researchers backtracked and uncovered the truth.

So now the problem is: before the quantum computing risk even arrives, human errors are already harvesting. This reminds us what "Not your Wallet, Not Your Money" really means. The security of self-managed private keys depends not only on the strength of encryption algorithms but also crucially on whether the tools themselves are flawed. When choosing a wallet, you really can't be careless, or even the strongest password can't prevent software flaws behind it.
