Despite the developers' silence, the community has not remained indifferent. Comments under the post express concern, as this is not the first security-related incident. Users are calling for additional protective measures, including two-factor authentication (2FA) or a multisignature feature.

Investor reaction

Interestingly, the incident did not affect user behavior or investor sentiment. Whales continue to bet on the future dynamics of the crypto market. In particular, a massive BTC long position was opened and later closed successfully.
