In the last week of 2025, the crypto market was incredibly lively—security risks, options settlement, governance changes, macroeconomic fluctuations, news piled up like mountains. This time window is worth a thorough review.
**Security Alert Issued** A well-known wallet tool browser extension recently exposed a serious vulnerability. Version 2.68 confirmed the presence of a supply chain security risk, which has caused over $6 million in direct losses. After the news broke, community discussions were very lively, with influential figures stepping out to comment—these types of security incidents happen several times a year, but each time they reset people's risk awareness bottom line.
Currently, the crypto market is undergoing a real "stress test." From the underlying security architecture, to derivatives like options settlement timing, to major moves in ecosystem governance, plus external macroeconomic fluctuations—these factors intertwine, creating the highly uncertain market environment we see today.
It is recommended to pay attention to the latest security alerts, especially updates related to wallets and browser extensions—small vulnerabilities can lead to significant fund losses, and this is no exaggeration.

6 million dollars in direct losses... This data needs to be carefully reviewed, and the proportions must be clearly calculated. Security incidents occur year after year, but the real question is why the repair cycle is always so long?

$6 million just disappeared like that? Damn, how careless do you have to be?
---
Once again, browser extensions are causing issues. When will they finally stabilize this system?
---
Stress testing? It feels like Web3 has never stopped stress testing.
---
Every year, something like this happens. Why are people still surprised this time?
---
A bunch of update notifications—who the hell can remember so many version numbers?
---
The most terrifying supply chain risks are the unpredictable ones. What should we do?
---
Six million, just consider it as paying tuition. Many people have already paid this fee long ago.
---
It seems like these big influencers just didn't remind us properly.
---
Wait, is this really serious this time, or is it another social anxiety panic?
---
With such chaos at the end of the year, people still daring to trade options are really brave.

$6 million just gone like that, unbelievable. Now I even get a bit nervous seeing wallet update notifications, fearing there might be some new trap again.

$6 million just disappeared like that, it's outrageous. I just want to know how those who say "hardware wallets are secure" are explaining this now.

$6 million just disappeared like that, and every year I have to go through this show again. I'm exhausted.
