Another large-scale fund theft case has surfaced. A security team has conducted in-depth tracking of the wallet thefts that extended from the 2022 LastPass data breach, providing a detailed reconstruction of how hackers used mixers and exchange channels to cash out, step by step transferring the stolen assets across the entire chain.
This incident once again serves as a wake-up call—currently, hacking and theft incidents are occurring one after another. From LastPass to various wallet security events, they all point to the same truth: although on-chain transparency of blockchain cannot prevent thefts from happening, it provides security teams with the opportunity to trace fund flows and identify risks.
In simple terms, you need to know where the money is actually flowing. This is crucial for the security development of the entire Web3 ecosystem.

It's LastPass again, did it fail again this time? Mixer services can't stop on-chain detectives at all.

LastPass is shifting the blame again? This time it directly involves wallets. Come on, there's really no stopping it.

LastPass is digging up old issues again? These hackers really treat us like ATMs.
I've already changed my private keys long ago, just worried that another 0day might be exposed someday.
Mixer techniques still can't escape on-chain scrutiny; this is why blockchain is trustworthy.
Had I known, I wouldn't have stored so many seed phrases in LastPass; now I'm all worried.
That's why I absolutely don't trust third-party wallet management tools. Managing my private keys myself is much safer.

Is LastPass having issues again? It's really time to switch browser plugins; this thing is just a hacker's ATM.
