Lost Your Phone? Here’s What to Do About Your Crypto
Losing a phone can be stressful, especially when it is also used to access crypto wallets, exchange accounts and two-factor authentication. The first step should be securing the accounts that were accessible from the device, including changing passwords and disabling the lost device where possible. Users should also check whether their wallet’s recovery phrase is safely backed up and whether the wallet itself was protected by a separate password or biometric security. If an exchange app was installed, contacting the platform and temporarily restricting access may also be sensible. The situation becomes more complicated for self-custody wallets because losing the phone isn’t necessarily the same as losing the crypto. What should every crypto user have prepared before losing their phone?
Communication After a Crypto Scam Can Make or Break a Community
When a crypto project suffers a hack, exploit or scam, the incident itself can be damaging, but the team's response can determine how much trust remains afterwards. Community members usually want quick answers about what happened, whether funds are safe, what the team is doing and whether there is a plan to recover losses. Silence or vague statements can create even more uncertainty, while transparent communication can help users understand the situation even when there is no immediate solution. A project cannot always prevent every incident, but it can control how it communicates afterwards. What should a crypto project tell its community in the first few hours after a major security incident?

Can Crypto Ever Lose Its Reputation for Being Prone to Hacks?
Security remains one of the biggest challenges facing crypto’s mainstream image. TRM Labs recorded 207 hacks during the first half of 2026, the highest number it has recorded in any six-month period, although losses of $972 million were less than half the amount stolen in the first half of 2025. Other security researchers have also reported record numbers of incidents, showing that the problem hasn’t disappeared even as the industry develops better security infrastructure. For crypto to gain wider trust, users may eventually expect security standards closer to those seen in traditional financial services. Can the industry realistically shake its reputation for being vulnerable to hacks?
