Rules:
You know one thing I'm having trouble wrapping my head around in this whole situation is all these well-known crypto people who got their private keys stolen. Like if you are a lead dev for Ethereum or whatever, probably have told somebody else "not your keys not your coin" at least a hundred times by now, etc and you are storing your private key on effing LastPass? Not just a third party password manager, not just a closed-source third-party password manager, not just a closed-source third-party cloud-connected password manager which lives in your web browser, but a closed-source third-party cloud-connected password manager which lives in your web browser and has a history of questionable security practices? Mind boggling to me. I expect lots of "regular" users to get caught up in stuff like this, even tech-savvy ones, but crypto developers? Yikes y'all of all people should know better.
And then, after lastpass got hacked, they still didn't migrate their coins. Like... what.
