TRON wallets lose $4M USDT
A network of 365 TRON addresses has been linked to at least $4 million in USDT thefts. The investigation by Bitquery found that 89 addresses lost only TRX, while 43 collector wallets were linked to a common wallet used to pay transaction fees. This highlights the risk of zero-click iOS exploits for crypto investors, particularly those using TRON wallets.
Blockchain data firm Bitquery has traced at least $4 million in USDT thefts to a network involving 365 TRON addresses.

Security Alliance separately logged six iOS wallet-compromise reports involving approximately $127,000 in losses during Oct. 28 through Nov. 3, across multiple Trust Wallets and one Uniswap Wallet.

Trust Wallet reinforced device-security advice, urging users to install the latest iOS available for their devices and keep recovery phrases and private keys out of screenshots and notes.
