A serious on-chain security incident has recently been detected. A hacker successfully took control of a multi-signature wallet, stealing a total of $27.3 million worth of assets. According to on-chain data tracking, the hacker first withdrew 1,000 ETH (approximately $3.24 million) from Aave, followed by a large amount of funds being transferred to mixers for money laundering. As of now, the hacker has deposited 6,300 ETH into mixers, valued at about $19.4 million. This series of operations indicates that the attacker is attempting to conceal the flow of funds. The current hacker wallet still holds assets worth approximately $9.75 million. This incident serves as a reminder to users: even with security measures like multi-signature, it is still essential to stay vigilant, regularly audit wallet permission configurations, and prevent private key leaks or internal risks.

27 million dollars gone? Can multi-signature be hacked? I'm already losing my pants.

27.3 million dollars just gone? Multi-signature can be broken too. No one in this circle can really sleep peacefully.

Multi-signature can all be broken, my goodness, how ruthless... --- $27.3 million just disappeared like that, once the mixer runs, no one can catch up --- Another insider? Or is the private key really that easy to leak --- Looks like even a secure wallet needs to guard against internal threats, the more I think about it, the more terrifying it is --- Over 6,000 ETH poured into the mixer, this technique is too skillful --- Periodic audits are a joke, they can't really prevent anything... --- Why is it always Aave that has issues? With such good liquidity, it has instead become a withdrawal machine? --- I don't even dare to keep my coins in the wallet anymore, really --- What does the fall of multi-signature mean? Doesn't it mean others can control it at will? --- This hacker team is so professional, they must be from some organization

Multisignature can't escape either? Damn, $27.3 million is gone just like that --- Another mixer, these guys are really good at playing. Is it private key leakage or permission configuration issues? Feels like no one can hide --- Every time I see this kind of news, I have to check my wallet... so exhausting --- 6,300 ETH sent to a mixer, quite thoughtful. But in the end, it still gets caught --- Multisignature can't save us, so what are we small retail investors playing for? Just HODL a cold wallet --- Why can some people always control multisignatures? Insider? Or is there a vulnerability in the contract itself? --- 975 million still in the wallet, this guy is really bold, just waiting to be tracked --- That's why I don't touch DeFi... too risky, just sit back with a cold wallet --- Private keys really need to be well protected, it seems there's no such thing as absolute security

27.3 million dollars lost, multi-signature can't even stop it? How big of a vulnerability is that?
