๐Are Malicious Firefox Add-ons Targeting Your Wallet?
40 malicious Firefox extensions were identified, with some impersonating popular Web3 wallets to steal wallet credentials and sensitive data.
The bigger lesson: your browser is part of the attack surface.
For long-term holdings, keep private keys offline and transaction signing isolated from the browser.

Where Did the SAND Exploit Actually Happen?
The Sandbox says the recent incident was concentrated in its SAND bridges on Base and BSC, where an attacker minted unbacked SAND.
User wallets were not compromised, and SAND on Ethereum and Polygon remained unaffected.
Knowing where the risk sits matters.
This was a bridge-layer risk, not a user wallet compromise.
