The attackers injected malicious software into the hardware wallets and broke through the hardware wallets of multiple developers.

When performing on chain operations, be sure to carefully verify the receiving address and not easily trust the address in the transaction record, as it may have been replaced by hackers. For multi signature wallets, it is necessary to strictly protect the security of private keys, carefully verify the sender's identity and content authenticity when handling encrypted asset related emails, and learn to use Web3 on chain tools to avoid risks.
