Something feels off with Trust Wallet right now.
Rumors of a browser extension exploit are spreading fast, and the vibes are not good.
I’m seeing this explode on Crypto Twitter at light speed. Users report funds vanishing right after authorizing their wallets — straight transfers to unknown addresses, no interaction, no mercy. The wallet in question? Trust Wallet, specifically the desktop browser extension.
Some traders claim losses already above $2M, though nothing is officially confirmed yet. That’s important. This could still be partial, exaggerated, or something more subtle like a compromised update or malicious interaction. But when smoke shows up this fast, I stop clicking.
Until we hear a clear statement from the Trust Wallet team, my advice is simple:
🛑 Avoid desktop versions
🛑 Don’t authorize anything
🛑 Stick to mobile or cold storage if you must move funds
Moments like this are brutal reminders: in crypto, convenience is often the hidden risk. Extensions, signatures, pop-ups — one lazy click and it’s over. I’ve seen enough cycles to know that capital protection always beats yield chasing. Toujours.
Stay sharp, don’t panic, and wait for confirmation before acting. On n’est pas pressés. 🧊
