As soon as I read the headline, I knew that the problem was...

> In just 40 minutes, the attacker shuffled my staked ETH and other tokens through multiple transactions, then drained the account.

One of the many, many benefits of irreversible transactions.

> I made mistakes, yes

His first mistake was keeping six figures worth of 'cash' in a wallet that anyone with less than 40 minutes of access to can swipe.

Also if you have crypto you should never mention anywhere that you do. No forums, social media, etc.

		They still attack tech professionals living in California. Saying you have crypto will probably move you to the top of the list, but they'll still get to you eventually. My brother (a tech professional in California) does not have any crypto or social media, and attackers still stole his phone number, which they used to steal his email account, which they then tried to get into a non-existent Coinbase account. He was only out of the time it took to get his phone number back (a couple of hours later).
