Full compensation? Sounds good, but once is enough for this kind of thing to happen. You still need to pay attention yourself.

$7 million just gone like that? Even the leading wallets have failed. No one in this circle can really be fully trusted.

$7 million just gone like that. Merry Christmas, right... But full compensation is quite considerate; it's much better than some exchanges.

7 million USD just gone like that. The Christmas gift was really special this year.
But full compensation is quite considerate, much better than some exchanges running away with users' funds.
Speaking of which, even top wallets can be hacked, so retail investors like us have to rely on ourselves to safeguard our private keys.

$7 million is gone just like that, even top wallets are not safe. Now confidence is really going to collapse.
