Damn, you're only 23 and you're already doing this kind of thing. You really have a lot of guts.

Uh, daring to do this at 23 years old, really brave... But on the other hand, cases like this happen every day, right? Exchanges really should be more vigilant.

At just 23 years old, he managed to steal 16M. This guy is really a genius... But on the other hand, how did the exchange's risk control sleep through?

Another internal scheme... After investigation and analysis, this level of theft mostly involves vulnerabilities in the platform's own wallet management. It is recommended that everyone monitor the subsequent flow of funds to those blacklisted wallet addresses. Data shows that 80% of funds in such cases are transferred and dispersed within 48 hours.
