The article details several possibilities for how the account may have been compromised, highlighting the importance of strong passwords and multi-factor authentication for securing social media accounts, especially for celebrities with large followings.

I can’t tell whether you’re a real crypto person or not. Real crypto people don’t believe in ETFs because you’re not holding your own keys. So it sounds like you are just in it to make more fiat, which is bullshit. But I could be wrong about you.

That’s why I don’t buy ETFs. Never said I did. Keep it all in a hardware wallet, only leaving enough on an exchange for day-to-day transactions.

You may need to hold any crypto at all on an exchange and not in a wallet that you control the keys to?
