Recently, industry friends have been complaining that tracking fund flows on the chain is really difficult. It is said that there have already been several related cases in Changsha this month alone. I want to remind everyone that the year-end is a high-risk period, and various scam tactics are also evolving. Protect your wallet and private keys, avoid scanning unknown QR codes or clicking on unfamiliar links, and never transfer money to unknown accounts. Once some money is transferred out, the difficulty of recovering it is really high. Be more cautious and have a safe New Year.

The year-end is definitely a carnival for scammers, but we must stay alert. Once the money on-chain rugs, it’s a permanent goodbye; don’t think the police can track it. Scanning QR codes can really be the most damaging; I’ve seen too many people suffer losses. To put it bluntly, just don’t be greedy; there’s no such thing as free money falling from the sky. It’s quite chaotic here in Changsha recently; frens are being very cautious. Private Key is more important than your life; absolutely cannot be casually revealed. As the year ends, the tricks of capital schemes to play people for suckers have come up with new tricks. In the end, you still have to trust your own judgment; think twice about what others say. It’s easy to put money in but hard to get it out; that’s the reality on-chain. At critical moments, you still have to stick to your bottom line; otherwise, how can you have a safe New Year?

It's really important to be cautious at the end of the year. My friend almost fell for it last month, but luckily he didn't click on that link.

on-chain tracking is a joke tbh, the whole transparency narrative falls apart the moment someone actually needs to retrieve stolen funds... anyway, this is why i keep preaching about wallet hygiene – not rocket science but apparently too nuanced for most normies

The end of the year is indeed the season when all kinds of scammers appear. On-chain tracing is so difficult that it's still us small investors who get caught in the trap.

This wave of scams has really escalated. During this time of year, all kinds of schemes to cut leeks are emerging... I know someone who was tricked by a phishing link and lost everything. Private keys are truly more valuable than anything else; a quick scan of a QR code and you're done. No matter how good the technical project is, it can't save your wallet. The cases in Changsha sound terrifying; on-chain tracking is so difficult, how many recoveries are actually possible... Honestly, I'm a bit scared too. The year-end is indeed a high-risk period. Before you get on board, you need to think about whether you can afford to lose this money. Don’t be blinded by some hundredfold opportunity. I see some small coins that look good, but I really don’t dare to transfer money casually.

Honestly, once the private key is leaked, it's basically over, and the contents of the wallet are gone instantly. The end of the year is indeed a high-risk period for scams; I know people who have fallen for it. On-chain transfers are irreversible, so you really need to be cautious. Don't chase small profits; those high-yield schemes are all traps. There have been several cases in Changsha this month, so we really need to stay alert. Actually, many problems occur because people are too lazy to memorize their private keys. Scanning QR codes and other basic tricks—are people still falling for these? Safety first; making money is secondary. Avoid losing money—that's the key. This reminder is timely, especially for newcomers to listen carefully.
