Are your STEEM coins Safe? Let's secure them together with Artificial Intelligence (Tomorrow).
I was the victim of a hack last year on poloniex because i didn't had 2FA turned on for a second. I bought a new phone so i had to migrate my google authenticator app from the old phone to the new. That's when i got hacked by an ethereum botnet. They stole about 10k dollar in ethereum (when it was still worth 40 dollar per coin) and left all my other coins alone. Exchanges can be dangerous!

I'm sorry to hear that, it is such a pain staking thing to live through. I lost 4.5 btc.

It was very fast indeed but i was hacked by a botnet so the process of hacking goes automatically. I made the stupid mistake of using the same password for multiple things. Because i later found out that my email got hacked a few years earlier. That's probably how the botnet got my password.

We all certainly need to be cautious. Cybersecurity needs magnitudes of improvement.
