ATOMIC WALLET HACKED

The Atomic wallet has been hacked, more than 35 million dollars has already been lost. The social media is filling up with stories of people who have lost all their coins. We're not ready for the mainstream when stuff like this happens. I know we're getting there, slowly with shortly. With this kind of stuff it just very bad. Last year's been Savage for people Luna UST, Celsius, FTX, and now a major crypto wallet provider getting hacked. Some people had exposure to all that pain, you jumped out of Luna and into Celsius and over to FTX and put all your money on Atomic wallet. 5 million people had Atomic wallets, the potential for people affected here is massive.

If you have an Atomic wallet and your funds have not yet been drained here's what you need to do immediately. Send all of your funds over to a centralized exchange like Binance or Kraken or over to your Hardware wallet if you also have a hardware wallet. Just get out of Atomic wallet right now. Go and buy yourself a hardware if you don't have one. Start that Hardware wallet using, a new seed phrase your seed phrase from Atomic wallet can never be used again. Transfer your funds back from the centralized exchange to of the hardware wallet. Of course, just go straight to the hardware wallet if you have that option and the guard that seed phrase with your life.

The reason Atomic wallet users have lost their funds is because it's a software hot wallet. This is a wallet that you use for like you know making tips, doing fun stuff maybe farming an airdrop or something like that. You don't keep millions of dollars on a wallet like this, not even thousands of dollars. That's what Hardware wallets are for and yet so many users did keep millions of dollars sitting on their Atomic wallets. Just remember never to invest more than you can afford to lose and don't use hot wallets. So far, we don't know the exact reason of the hack. Not that it matters for people of you who have lost everything. I hope that you haven't been affected by this but people have been. If you still have unhacked funds in an Atomic wallet, run and get out ASAP.
