This has to be the gayest thread and post combination ever to has been witnessed on 4channel in my entire life, and we are all gayer for have being part of it.

>>52557244
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Makes me feel a bit less like a moron that I didn't.

electrum wallet is terrible because they can just replace the .exe in the website at any given notice bro

>>52557548
Explain?

>>52557311
Did you reference your own node?
Download an unverified update?

>>52557573
Im assuming he got a corrupted version from the website, Electrum has gotten such hacks in the past where they replace the Exe in the front end and people believe they created a clean wallet.
If he used a Ledger in combination with Spectrum then no idea how he got drained.

>lost one of my ledgers
>afraid if buy a new one I'll get taken out by a hit squad

>>52557223
for .167 btc you should've had a hardware wallet

>>52557615
Yeah I remember the hack where the victim will reference a bad node that says you need to update and the update is a hacked version of electrum.

As long as you have a clean version, reference your own node, use a hw wallet, in a multi-sig, and secure your data you should be unstoppable

>>52557632
They sell them at bestbuy for cash

>Can't leave it on exchanges.
>Can't trust wallets not to get hacked.
>Can't just store a piece of paper with your magic words without fire, flood, theft, or forgetfulness.

Clown SHIT. How is this a cutting edge tech again?

>>52557710
What are the alternatives?

Use USD which is based on ESG
See your race discriminated against at all levels (education, work, banking liquidity)
Watch those doing it gets bailed out again and again?

I'd rather have a fighting chance than submit to extermination.

>>52557548
It seemed to be the best available option at the time for my limited knowledge

>>52557589
>Did you reference your own node?
I don't know what that means

>Download an unverified update?
Possible, I don't remember. I remember using the seed phrase again because the password didn't work or I got it wrong. The theft happened months later after I had "used up" some of the BTC.

It happened when I was on vacation but I didn't check the wallet for months anyway.

>>52557639
You're right

>>52557690
Really? Hmmmmmmm this is interesting, thanks anon

>I don't know what that means
In electrum it defaults to connecting to a reference node.
These are all intelligence agencies and hackers.

You need to run your own Bitcoin node and before starting electrum you switch some options so it doesn't auto connect.
Then you manually connect your own node to it so you can't be fed any incorrect info or asked to "update" or something

It sounds like they hacked you when you put your seed phrase in.
It's always good to airgap your seed phrase to a dedicated device like a hw wallet so that it is never clear a hacker what it is.

Maybe someone accessed your physical wallet seed? If you were away on vacation.

Get better security on both the way you use it and secure it.
Look into multi-sig wallet schemes.

Maybe you were referencing a hackers node and he had it set up to give you an error and update notification?
Then you changed the version of the software and gave him your keys?

Then he waited to see if you were stacking or spending and then robbed you.

Yes it always auto-connected and immediately showed the balance. Thank you for your tips. Crypto really depends on the good guys winning, people like you.

>Maybe someone accessed your physical wallet seed? If you were away on vacation.

It seems very unlikely, but who knows? Not sure if I even want to find out. Converting to ETH and putting some in exchanges saved me a lot of cryptoassets.

>>52557223
Well think of it this way, when they stole it, they stole about $8.5k (0.167 * 50000). But since you jsut now realized they took it now, it is only worth $2.5k (0.167 * 15000).

So essentially you stole six grand from them

>>52557912
B00kmarked

Sorry for the loss, I've been targeted a few times because blockfi leaked my data, and hackers have sim swapped my phone and recently got into my bank account through social manipulation by using personal information

I'm pretty down pat with electronic security but anyone I do business with gets fucked with (phones, banks, credit cards)

It's probably mossad or something lol

>>52558218
WOW, thanks for the info. It never occured to me i could be targeted for my miser 0.8 btc

>>52558297
Never use text 2FA, also call you financial provider and make a secret password with them to prevent a social attack

>>52558160
kek nice, made me giggle.

There are people in this thread who trade with the same computer they look up porn and pirate games on.
The people who think they're better than that still even have SMS 2FA.

>>52557774
>USD which is based on ESG
/pol/ zoomer meme
USD is and always has been backed by US military at its core

>>52558160
That's pretty funny

>>52558218
Your bank account? I wonder how many bank accounts the ultrarich use to spread the risk. Apparently a lot of these attacks came from Russia (and it happened right before their Christmas), but that's just me reading articles.

>>52557223
I did it and I'll give it back only if you post your boobs.

>>52557774

>Your race

Stopped as soon as I saw the meth spinning skinhead shit.

But yeah, I am 100% comfortable using normal money and buying normal investments that won't go *poof* because I lost my funny money key.

Crypto is backed by literally nothing.

>>52558434
yes sirs i would like to redeem my dollar for one us military plz. what do you mean this is a mcdonalds?

>>52559040
if crypto is backed by nothing than the internet is magic coming from the compute

>>52557223
Were your keys compromised? You need to shield your wallet information and transactions from public view to reduce the chances of been under surveillance.

>>52558073
You just might need to look at ORE protocol that allow users to seamlessly manage their assets across multiple chains

>>52557912
>reference node
what even is this?

>>52557270
i laughed so i lost
