Lost $20k on a trading bot yesterday. The wallet got compromised somehow. Just wanted to put this out there—please double-check your security settings, especially if you're running automated strategies. Use hardware wallets where possible, enable every layer of verification you can. It happens faster than you think.

Your reminder came just in time. I almost suffered a big loss because I was too lazy to deal with a hardware wallet.

20k lost... This wave is a bit brutal, automated trading is really hard to defend against.

Oh my, 20k just disappeared like that. Bots are definitely a double-edged sword.

20k gone, it's indeed outrageous. But this guy's warning is still worth listening to; automated trading bots are really prone to issues.
