It is better to download all available wallets using links from the official website, and a link to the official website can be found on the coinmarketcap service. I mine those coins that have a hardware wallet, and if you have a lot of coins, then you need to use a cold wallet that you create on a separate computer.
Or you store your cold wallet in a VM and use another VM for web wallet if you actually need one.
I would never leave a Web Wallet open in a browser, same as normal browsing cannot understand those who keep tons of tabs open in whatever browser they have.

Hey bud - very sorry to hear this happened to you. Lots of us know, all too well, there are lots of people that are spending a tremendous amount of time and effort to steal crypto that isn't rightfully theirs. What I recommend doing is the following:
Assuming you're using windows, close ALL browsers and anything in your system tray that is communicating with the outside world - open up the command prompt as an administrator and type "netstat -ano". This will bring up a list of all of your computer's current connections to outside machines. You want to look, specifically at the "ESTABLISHED" connections that show a FOREIGN address that is not local (ie.. doesn't start with a local IP like 127.x.x.x or 192.x.x.x etc.). Next - open up your task manager with ctrl/shift/esc and click on "Details". You will see a Process ID listed that will correspond with the PID's listed in the netstat -ano page.
This is where you can see if anyone is spying on the computer in question.
Anti-Virus software, of course, is important. But - don't always assume it catches everything.
Always, always, always super important to be vigilant in your personal cyber security!

when the pump comes this would hurt very very much. welcome to crypto and sorry for your loss, hard lessons comes and hope you learn from it.
this crypto place is filled with vile snakes

This is not my first time getting hacked and I have learned my lessons. The problem is that no matter the fact we managed to get 1 million KAS for Ledger Nano development its been 4+ months and the app is not ready yet. Also I didn't expect paid Bitdefender antivirus on my PC and GitHub to allow malware apps on their site
You got keylogged?
Another layer of security is a software keyboard like neo safekeys, unless you got videologged.
Make layers of security, make a mess so that even with remote access finding stuff is a head ache.
A software keyboard once saved a shitcoin i owned hehe

Blockchain analysis shows that around that time at 18.03.2023 around 75k USD of Kaspa tokens were stollen and send via multiple transaction ,divided by 2 after each transaction.

First it's not 75k usd in crypto.
If you say so. You should still be more careful where and how you store your crypto.
Yes ,but not only mine. Check Kaspa Discord wallet-help section. Mine are 87k Kaspa tokens for around 1200 usd at the time.

How did they install remote desktop?
First it's not 75k usd in crypto. And second yes my seed was on my Desktop and the hacker got it via remote desktop I found was installed a day ago before the hack
100% sure I didn't click on a phishing site. Also check the Discord help-wallet thread. There are more people like me now
If that's true where ever the keys were stored was hacked. You still haven't said if you actually had control of your keys or if your "wallet"
(probably more like an account) managed the keys "on your behalf". It doesn't matter whether you say, but it makes a big difference as to
who and what got hacked, or just plain scammed.
But seriously, with $75k worth of crypto you need to be more careful.

Can't check their discord help-wallet thread. I have no discord installed on my LinuxIf you don't mind, sharing screenshots here wouldn't harm. But just like I said I saw similar complaints on Reddit. My question is What are the developers saying about the whole situation? have they confirmed that there is a hack or there's a bug?
Stay away from Closed source web wallets!
I do see a lot of phishing web wallets when I just google kaspa web wallet. Are you sure you didn't enter your sends to the wrong site?
Don't you have any other alternative software wallets that support the coin?
I have seen a few individuals complain about their coins disappearing too on Reddit. May there's a problem with the blockchain or even the web wallet you guys think is official

Hi folks,
I appreciated your feedback and agree with the warnings regarding web wallets. What I don't understand is why the officially supported web wallet (https://wallet.kaspanet.io/) does not show the transaction where my all of coins are transferred? I see it on the block explorer, but not in the web wallet. Can someone who knows more shed light on this?

This question gets into investment strategy, which I won't comment on.

Web wallet is red flag, every proof of work coins I own has a PC wallet software if they don't have mobile versions, you will need to download the blockchain data yourself to see your balance, why are you still using web wallet? If the coin don't have wallet software it is better to avoid such projects and look for a better one.
