On-chain security monitoring agencies have detected a suspicious fund movement: a hacker transferred 1,337.1 ETH to a privacy mixing protocol, worth approximately $3.9 million. The source of these funds can be traced back, revealing that they include suspiciously withdrawn Wrapped ETH and Story tokens, which are likely derived from a compromised multi-signature account.

From on-chain data, such fund flows often reflect several risk signals: firstly, potential exploitation of security vulnerabilities in multi-signature accounts; secondly, attackers attempting to obscure fund traces using privacy tools. For users holding WETH and Story tokens, this serves as a reminder—to strengthen wallet security and contract risk awareness. Similar multi-signature account vulnerabilities have frequently occurred in the past, often related to improper permission management or key management errors. This incident once again underscores that on-chain asset security depends not only on exchanges or wallets themselves but also fundamentally on proper private key management and multi-signature strategy setup.

13,370 ETH跑路，这数字有点绝啊，黑客还挺讲究 --- Again, multi-signature issues. When will these big holders learn? --- WETH and Story holders need to be careful; it seems like a dump is coming. --- As for mixed currency protocols, the more I use them, the more suspicious I become. Can they really be avoided? --- $3.9 million just disappeared like that. Multi-signature management really needs to be taken seriously. --- How many times have I said about key management? Some people still don’t believe it. --- It feels like blockchain security monitoring agencies are just armchair strategists after the fact; they can't really stop anything. --- Is the Story token going to fail? New tokens like this are not guaranteed. --- Multi-signature account vulnerabilities keep appearing; it seems the design itself has issues. --- Managing private keys is so hard; ordinary people just can't handle this system.

Is it another multi-signature account being exploited? These days, multi-signature isn't even safe anymore. You still have to keep your private keys secure to feel at ease.

1337 ETH mixed coins, this guy is really ruthless, washing 3.9 million dollars just like that --- Multi-signature account had another issue? I told you that permission management can't be handled casually --- Tracking every day, yet some still manage to run away. Privacy protocols are really easy to do business with --- WETH and Story holders are trembling, I’d feel safer leaving my keys under the pillow than trusting them --- The number 1337 is interesting, hackers are even joking around --- Another multi-signature vulnerability, this time someone didn’t manage those few keys properly --- Mixing protocols are just their cash machines, what’s the use of monitoring --- This is true on-chain activity, more meaningful than those shitcoins --- Key management mistakes happen every year, it’s a daily show --- Still want to track? They’ve all moved into privacy pools, the smoke has basically cleared

Here we go again, multi-signature wallets are being exposed again? Really, these folks need to learn a good lesson on managing keys. --- $3.9 million went straight to a mixer for washing. This method is old-fashioned, and no matter how discreet the on-chain operation, it can still be caught. --- WETH and Story holders should stay alert. Now these kinds of risks are coming one after another. Multi-signature audits really shouldn't be skimped on. --- Private key management is always a topic of discussion, but some people just don't take it seriously. This lesson has been costly again. --- 1337.1 ETH, the number brother has good taste, but that doesn't change the fact that hackers will end up in jail. --- Why is it always multi-signature issues? Poor permission configuration, it's really not that hard. --- On-chain transparency is a double-edged sword. The benefit is traceability; the downside is you need to be cautious everywhere. --- Holding tokens is not enough; you also need to worry about your multi-signature setup. The true moat of Web3 starts with attention to detail.

Once again, a multi-signature account has failed. I was wondering how some people still dare to put all their eggs in one basket. $3.9 million is gone just like that. Privacy mixing can't prevent on-chain analysis at all. It's hard to hold together; no matter how fancy the multi-signature setup is, if you don't know how to use it, it's all pointless.

1337 ETH washed, this method is so old-fashioned --- It's another multi-signature vulnerability. When will these people learn... --- Daring to transfer 3.9 million openly for privacy mixing? On-chain transparency is really a joke --- To those holding WETH, take some time to check your account permissions, don’t get involved in the mess --- Poor key management, even the best protocols are useless. Ultimately, it’s still your own responsibility --- Wait, the number 1337... hackers are quite playful haha --- Mixing protocols are being called out again, how else can we survive these days --- Multi-signature account pitfalls have been around for so many years, why are people still stepping into them
