Topic: Keep your crypto holdings secure!!! (Read 297 times)

You are right, I was wondering about the OP and whether the concern was more about
HAMAS or getting our wallets hacked? TBH I wouldnt put it past Mossad or the IDF's.

anyway, yes its important to secure your coins and all passphrases, passwords and seeds
to the best of your ability because lets be honest, WE are the weakest link in the security chain.

Always be careful and don't just trust anyone, always double check all tracsaction and people you meet, you should be the only one in control of your money.
This kind of incident is not new, so don't be complacent that you won't be a victim of something like this in the future. Because all the scammers are really spreading now.

Let's be real here. Hamas isn't the main concern when it comes to crypto hacks. And targeting pro-israel countries isn't same as targeting CEX:es or DeFi for random users. Or having wallet drainers in web pages that are being constantly shared in every crypto community. I feel like putting my tin foil hat on this as all they have is one example of Delhi businessman, yet they and OP are seem to see this as a major threat. While actual crypto hacks are a multi billion dollar industry happening world wide. And my educated guess is that worst groups are far from Hamas. Also there's the fact that they can launder the money as much as they can, it's getting harder and harder to cash out any significant crypto amounts. And in the future that's most likely impossible.

That being said. Everyone should keep their wallets safe. Not because of Hamas, but because you don't keep your door open, or give control of your bank account to strangers either.

I don't know for sure if Hamas is involved in such activities. But I understand your concern. Prioritizing security is definitely important when it comes to storing and handling cryptocurrency. Don't click on suspicious links or download unknown files and always use strong, unique passwords and enable two-factor authentication whenever possible. Additionally, consider investing in a hardware wallet for added security. The number of scams will increase day by day and the incidents of theft will be heard constantly. So be aware of potential security threats and take proactive measures to protect your crypto assets.

Gold is used as a store of value for centuries and is often considered a safe-haven and the lower volatility is more attractive.

Your reminder is a good reminder. Crypto is only safe if we store it safe.
If we store it not safe it is lost easily.
We cant trust hackers because hackers know every exploit and will make every exploit to steel our coin.

Some people can be careless with so many things about there information they don't even consider security of there information again, if your security is not a priority then there is no security then, just because of some people's carelessness they have invaded in different ways, they don't cross check links before registering there information even clicking on random links, am sure there will be people who will feel in there seed phrase in forms. They don't know anything about so someone just have to be very careful with the internet its an interesting place the same time a scary place to be.

The news holds zero credibility and I don't think hamas will be targeting to the wallets now, they are at the war zone now with no food, water, electricity and internet.

But as title says keep your crypto safe, its your responsibility no matter what.

That's a twist.

I've just read on the link provided that it's 2021 so, it had happened long time ago and that's probably how they're funded as well.

Yeah, if there's no war I think that there won't be any highlight on that wallet but because it's timely, given that Hamas attacked on it so they have to be exposed.

Personally I don't sure yet with this link related about Hamas targeting with cryptocurrency fund for stalling, actually with your source information talk about Israel agency linked with all cryptocurrency fund are targeting by Hamas. Despite is rumor about Hamas targeting with cryptocurrency holder true or not have been our decision to secure our cryptocurrency fund. Don't click any unknow link receiving in our email and protect all assets with hardware wallet, I don't think have an ideas for losing our fund when holding in right wallet and keep secure it for long term, don't be afraid and serious with unknow information exactly about OP topic not related yet about Hamas because hacker have been target for all cryptocurrency holder before with how much million assets of cryptocurrency hack.

No information about how the wallet was hacked is provided but there is some question that's left unanswered.
Why did the authority just know now that the theft wallet was operated by al Qassam brigades when the issue of Hamas occurred?
I ask this question there could be a political game played there.
I don't support bad habits but the theft is also naive for moving the cryptocurrency to Binance which allows the Isreal authority to freeze the account.

I think that there is always the use of click bait, it is an evil that we live with today, and it is enough for there to be a trending topic to trigger the misuse of this bad practice on the Internet.

One should always be attentive to the fact of any security breach in the crypto reference, because even if we follow the established parameters to their maximum extent, trust is perhaps our main mistake, so the best be on the lookout. Then, any news is vital, to know if there is something different.

But, there is nothing new here, just maybe putting the click bait with neon lights on a topic that is unfortunately a tragedy and they want to link one thing with the other. Please!  no matter your religion, your country, or your monetary status, the security It must be the same in the so explicitly explained fact of safeguarding your bitcoin.

Of course, bro, if you have a wallet that includes valuable assets like bitcoin, and you have not made a full arrangement on top of it, then the end result can be nothing but a loss. Of course, the more valuable something is, the more every person wants to get it in any situation. Similarly, if bitcoin is not well protected in terms of security and privacy, then the responsibility will be on you because when If you don't take full safety measures, there will definitely be a risky intervention.

So, even if you have something valuable like bitcoin, don't keep it on online wallets or exchanges, because these hackers monitor and rob people in the same way. Yes, if it is a small amount, then they can keep it on online wallets or exchanges for trading, etc., and if it is a large amount, it is very important to use hardware wallets because physical wallets are more secure in protecting against hackers than online wallets.


Yes, all Arabians and all Muslims are not bad and cannot be. It is not on Muslims, Christians, Jews, or atheists; anyone who spreads chaos falls under the category of terrorism, so they are called terrorists. It is the bad belief of some people that Muslims and Arabs are terrorists. Not only that, but it is not so; it is a misunderstanding of these people. Mexico is the world's most wanted criminal-rated country; 83% of its people are Christians, so that does not mean that Christianity is now a terrorist religion or that Christians are terrorists. By excuse, I do not mean any blasphemy, but the purpose is to explain.

The rest of the terrorist organization runs on the same black money. Wherever they find their goal (money), they get every possible access there. So, in the same way, Malicious entities also work for their purpose in the crypto space. It means wherever they see weakness in any wallet or exchange account, they attack it in the form of a hacker. So the goal is to keep your assets as safe as possible, i.e., in hardware wallets, etc.

the main focus is how to secure the devices we use. No matter how good the security you use, if you personally don't really care and seem careless, your security will still fail. There have been many incidents of crypto wallets being hacked and losing many of their assets, even though they have implemented double security, but what happens is that all assets can be lost. what is accessed and what is usually used should receive attention. If our wallet is exposed, hackers will make many attempts to steal our assets.

Actually if you read closely with another links in the news, it says that it started at 2019. And the Indian authorities has a hard time tracing the source, until Israel Mossad informed them that the wallet according to them belong to the leader of the Hamas group and so India knows the connection now.


Yes, regardless who's entities is the hackers are, we should be very vigilant on who we deal with as far as our cryptocurrencies goes. We must practice safe hygiene so that we won't get hack even by our neighbours. It's that it is just being magnified right now because of the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

It happened 2 years ago?

I agree to those folks that are saying that whoever is the group behind the robbery, it's still going to depend on how we're keeping ourselves secure and we shouldn't trust any custodial wallet for keeping our wallets.

I remember that there's also this type of news from Afghanistan after the taking over of Taliban. I guess these news will always connected to the current news and affairs but in relation with that, we have to be responsible on how we keep our funds and what wallets we use.

You are right, it would be more helpful if the op would cover the above questions instead of picking up dead bodies/talking about old events at the moment of war, where both countries are experiencing los of life. I can see where the OP is going and which side he wanted to chose and making sure of it that we know it. I am not being rude kr trying to accuse the op but simply sharing the image that this post is making. But to be very honest we should really be careful, because hacks especially in crypto has been so much.

If you would search on internet then you will find that, only in 8 months the lost money by hacks has reached 1 billion dollars already. And just to point out, there are many freelancer hackers or you can call them independent hackers who have stole a great amount of money and donate it to palestine or other poor countries facing death from a long time. Just sharing the fact not chosing sides just like op.
Dear this post or event whatever you call it is old as op has said in his post, and yes there are many hackers either they are from hamas kr from whatever part of the world, hacking not because there government has asked them, they obviously doing it independently at least that's what I think.

I hope non of the reader of this post will mind my words.

Regardless of which group the hackers belong to, they only target software vulnerabilities, the rest is user negligence.
And yeah I think we know the recommended security measures as you said.

Which wallet was the man using because the wallets we're using to store our Bitcoin is very important. Many people don't take this warning very serious and they'll regret not doing that because using centralized wallets are a threat to our Bitcoin. And when you use a non custodial wallet you till need to be careful because when you exposed your seed phrase or private key, your coins are no longer secured and they can be hacked just like what happened to the business man. We should use offline wallets like hardware wallets or even though we have to use online wallets like electrum, we should use them in an airgapped device. When you do this you have hack proof your coins and they will be stored safely until you're ready to sell. A lot of war is going on and the terrorists behind this wars need funding, the easiest way they can get that is through cryptocurency and users involved will be the target so we have to be wise and protect our coins.


Creating an online wallet has no cost so I understood understand why people still use their main offline wallet for free things that could cause them to lose everything in their wallet. People are so used to getting free things like giveaways, airdrop and that's why it'll be very hard for them to let go of free things completely, some members built their wealth on free things and they think the industry is still as it was in the past when those airdrops and giveaway were worth something but they forget that a new marketing technique has been introduced and those free things aren't worth it anymore. Giveaways and airdrops are now mostly used by scammers and if we want to participate in them, we should use a separate wallats and device that doesn't have any coin and won't be connected to our main account so Incase it get infected we would be affected.

Probably this indian owner of lost Bitcoin is too gullible to click random link or put his wallet private key on unsecured place. Worst is he is storing funds on CEX while he should be using hardware wallets considering how huge his holdings in crypto.

With Hamas or not threat. Bitcoin holders should really be vigilant with their holdings since  this is the main purpose of being decentralized. We are on our own in securing our assets safety which is a double edge sword when you don’t have any idea on what is the basic security protocol for your crypto assets.
