So it’s really just a case of not setting up multisig properly, and 1.4 billion is gone... It’s already 2024 and people are still making these rookie mistakes?

Multisig should have been widely adopted a long time ago. It's really outrageous that some exchanges still dare to operate without it.

honestly multisig would've cut the loss by like 80% minimum. the forensics just show how catastrophically bad their wallet design was—literally basic risk management stuff. yet people still deploy billions into these janky setups lol

Multi-signature wallets are definitely not just for show—losing 140 million like this is truly unbelievable.

Multisig should have become widespread a long time ago. Are there still exchanges daring to go without it? That's absurd.

That's it? Multisig should have been standard a long time ago. It's already too late to discuss it now... $1.4 billion is just gone like that.
