I posted a post about Poly Network being hack as an anon user but it was deleted. I don't get why? Trying to raise awareness on potential crypto wallet pitfall.

Anyway, I am sharing this news about Poly Network being hacked and $600 million in crypto was lost. Do be cautious of your own crypto and maybe use a physical wallet instead.

Truly one for the history books of DeFi and one of the largest exploits ever (despite being a platform that I didn't hear of until this morning hahah). What a time to be alive. Hope no one here was affected and invest safe yall!
