Just do a chargeback

>>25725326
you got robbed son

>>25725326
Yikes. Should've used a hardware wallet retard

>>25725334
This. You need to call the manager, Victor something-or-other.

How could someone hack you

Are you happy?

Should have used exchange wallets instead of larping with wallets

>>25725326
is that 5k bitcoin?

>>25725400
>not your keys not your coins!
which wallet am I suppose to use when all of them are shit?

>>25725397
Holy kek

>>25725326
got to be a larp

>>25725326
This is a LARP but anyone with that many corns would spread them out across multiple hardware and paper wallets and a few exchanges.

>>25725326
was that 5k usd or btc?
I hope it was usd anon..... otherwise rip

>>25725489
Private key forged on a gold plate

https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/5072

seems like electrum is a shit wallet, what do you guys use?

>>25725326
Someone close to you used your computer while you were afk. Did you broadcast to the world your holdings?

>>25725441
definitely 5k milliBTC. you can use an mbtc setting on electrum to display in 1/1000th parts.

>>25725326
I don't get it.

>>25725326
>keeping SKs on an electronic device for longer than 2.1 seconds
ngmi but actually

Did you fall for the "update" scam?

>>25725326
i'd end my life

wait i get it. this is OPs clever ruse to scam the IRS by telling them he got hacked and cant pay taxes on coins he lost.
nice one OP.

I use the Coinbase pro wallet. It has a built in exchange.

>>25725904
What the hell? can someone explain how that guy lost his BTC to an idiot?

>>25725326
Imagine not using a hardware wallet.

>>25726116
No way, OP can't surely be that smart. It's just not possible.

>>25726154
Either someone he knows robbed him, he fell for an Indian pajeet scammer, or virus.

>>25726192
why not its a 200iq move

>>25726226
But OP is always a faggot. Can faggots be smart?

>>25726207
Actually I looked into it. It seems that older versions of Electrum would allow you to connect to malicious servers via peer discovery, which would then send you a fake update, which if you installed, would proceed to steal your keys. That's frightening. Imagine clicking the "update now" button and having all your shit stolen.

https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/4968

>>25726251
it didnt send a fake update. it sent a fake notification to update "go to this site...".
i remember it when it happened, it was very annoying for a while. i saw daily posts on dread that drug users got scammed for all their coins lol, even some vendors got fucked. dumbasses.

>>25726251
>>25726305
let me clarify. it just opened a popup that said "you need to update, go to electrum.com to download 4.0" or some bullshit and the ok button did nothing. you had to manually go to the website and download a new version from the scam site.

>>25726330
That's still pretty bad depending on how convincing their fake electrum site is. I can see a lot of people not paying attention to the URL. No way that should be possible.

>>25726368
yeah it was really bad, but im just saying its not like a misclick on your computer would instantly lose you all your funds. you'd have to consciously go and do it.

>>25725397
Lol

>>25726368
>>25726414
anyone using software wallets should be savvy enough to verify builds they download anyway, otherwise pay for a hardware wallet

>>25726615
Verifying the download wouldn't have done anything. It was a result of a malicious server being able to send you update links. A software flaw in the official version.

>>25726683
you have no idea what you are talking about.

>>25726683
Verifying the download with hashes would have prevented you from running a fake program.

>>25726743
>>25726814
If you download from a scam site, verifying hashes from the same scam site is not going to help you.
Verifying downloads is retarded. The only sensible thing is trust TLS and only download from the official website.
If it's compromised, then the hashes/signatures are compromised too.

>>25726876
You verify the hash with a pgp signature from a key you already know is legit.

>>25726876
ofc this is all theoretical fuck that i went to the official site and downloaded.
i'm not the same type of retard that got scammed on runelite.com

>>25726944
If the official site is compromised, the build server is just going to sign malware.
Telling users to use PGP is the wrong takeaway. It's a shit UX and a bad threat model.
They should have just removed the retarded update popup feature and taught people to go to the website.

>>25726997
i'm gonna go and download the electrum pgp right now.

>>25727029
The only valid usecase for PGP is White House Market, but knock yourself out.

>>25726997
if TLS and my DNS gets compromised in worlds greatest scam ever my schizophrenic tinfoil hat is prepared for the day i update electrum (probably never).

verify the hash, compile from source if you can.
otherwise wait 30 days before even installing.
never update the wallet, unless you want to follow 30 day rule again.
then transfer to hardware wallet

>>25725326
I'm using Electrum on a MacBook Pro, is that okay?

>>25727087
>The only valid usecase for PGP is White House Market, but knock yourself out.
It's being used by plenty of normal mailservers. Most modern mailclients communicate through PGP encryption.
In fact, I last used it a couple weeks ago to buy opiates.

>>25727134
>Most modern mailclients communicate through PGP encryption.
You might be confusing PGP for TLS/STARTTLS

>>25725326
impressive to fuck up this hard

>>25727134
are you a kratomsoiboi or did you get the real deal?

just use MEW like a normal person

>>25727115
yes, don't click anything that looks suspect. OP most likely got fucked that way.

>>25727193
I bought Codeine and Oxycontin.
I haven't used Kratom in over 6 months because it makes me manic. No good.
I'm not a heavy user, small amounts get me far and I rarely take them.

>>25727169
Maybe correct, but I do use PGP manually in my emails when I'm contacting my "friends" and we communicate with PGP because we just talk about such secret talk about who we crush on and stuff like omg super top secret stuff!!!

>>25727288
>Maybe correct, but I do use PGP manually in my emails when I'm contacting my "friends" and we communicate with PGP because we just talk about such secret talk about who we crush on and stuff like omg super top secret stuff!!!
Aye, it's great for that.
Enjoy the opiates, friend

>>25727288
>I bought Codeine and Oxycontin
wtf are you doing idiot? delete this

>>25727387
I'm using a VPN and a 4chan pass, but more importantly I dont give a fuck it was small amounts if caught I'd get a small fine and a slap on the wrist. It's decriminalised in my country. I could literally go to rehab and not pay a dime.

>>25725326
so that means you weren't holding loki?

>>25727447
>I could literally go to rehab and not pay a dime.
Fucking Euros I swear. Why does the US have to be so cucked?

>>25727479
2 party system. Your entire country is based on compromise instead of having 50 parties to choose from and gaining more seats/power the more popular the party gets.
Only a reform could save your country, it's unironically over for America. You will always be 10-20 years behind on stuff like this.

>>25727479
On the other hand, you guys got lots of states with legal weed. Literally over the counter. That's pretty badass.

>>25727479
then gtfo and go live there retarded nigger

>>25727507
nigger our "50+" candidates end just like yours do
1 side vs the other
stop pretending like any random party has had any significant impact on your history ever

>>25727545
ouch tiny dick syndrome.
>>25727585
You don't understand how a multiple party system works. I'm not even going to spend half a second explaining it to you. Live in ignorance and continue being offended by every person that criticizes you. You'll die of a heart attack at 40 anyways with your anger issues.

>>25727625
Lmao anon pretty based.
>>25727545
Nah, I can still enjoy living here and recognize the need for change. Why should I have to move to enjoy more freedom? We should strive to btfo the euros

>>25727625
>female insult
no matter how much estrogen you take you will never be a woman and your gaping flesh wound will never stop reeking of shit
>>25727676
cool I recognize the need for change too, like changing your pronouns to was/were with a few simple motions
faggots like you will be flushed out and exterminated sooner than you think

>>25727760
yeah i'm thinking you're a literal NPC shutting down emotionally unable to even rationally debate whether change is good or not. your entire argumentation is based on feelings. you are a woman with BPD and anger issues in the body of a male.

>>25727115
Qubes inside clean Debian build with nothing else installed over TOR over VPN is the only remotely acceptable way to run a hot wallet.

metamask or exodus until I get a physical wallet?

>>25725489
Trezor

>>25727819
>plebbit speak

go back and stay there niggerfag or else live stream your rope

>>25727898
npc

This is a dumb comment but I'm worried.

I have my coins on an exchange and I have a yubikey. I accidentally left my yubikey plugged into my computer. During that time could it have been compromised?

>>25728424
Thats how I got hacked

>>25728787
larp?

>>25728787
How

>>25729174
ms paint

>>25728787
How the hell are you dealing with this right now?
