That shouldn't be the takeaway. The takeaway should be popularizing multisig models that use things like 2fa (mobile key and desktop key) to authorize transactions and slowly fading out single sig hot wallets.
I was thinking of using a desktop wallet to generate a signed psbt that would get scanned via qr code to one's phone before getting signed and broadcast there.
I haven't seen any articles about trying to use yubikeys to make ECDSA secp256k1 signatures from this year but it seems possible with some manual intervention (see the comment in the 1st link). Here are some of the newer articles I found from google:
This reminds me of Dashjr hack a while ago. It's really amazing how OGs and expert people put their big stacks at risk like this, while everyone is so paranoid today and we have so many good tools.
Talked to my wife. She tried to install a voice changer software yesterday from a link on twitter and it didn't install. This is a windows 11 PC. I see something new called WingFtpServer as a startup program. That has to be it. C'est la vie Embarrassed
Maybe someone is trying to fool us into thinking there's been a boating accident.
This is the truth I subscribe to!
this is the more plausible...
100% on this side.
Biggest lesson to me is that bitcointalk.org is still alive. Holy shit!

Can you 2fa any wallet with a yubikey?

Losing 11BTC is a federal crime and you must plead guilty.

Lmfao. Y’all should backup to cold wallets like Trezor if you haven’t already.

Seems like the big boys are coming for the corn now. Those that are low hanging, for now.
Yup careful everyone, it’s getting real!
It's simple... https://postimg.cc/v1bK5NH4
Keeping funds in a hot wallet, using Windows, installing random-ass shady software. With so many OpSec holes I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.
Case closed.
Bill Gates at it again?
I only have 0.2 Bitcoin and I would never let anyone use my computer/phone.
How was it actually lost? Storing the seed on his desktop?
Small mistakes that cost a lot.
Good post 😘

congrats to the hacker
No, the hacker is a prick if he doesn't give at least some of it back.
a real OG
How a seedsigner differs from a cold card or blockstream jade?
Maybe missed something idk.
Thanks
