same thing happened to me earlier this year
-On July 2 at 04:00 UTC my Polymarket account was drained in a single transaction. About $4,900 in positions, wallet ownership swapped to the attackers.
*How the hack works*
-Every Polymarket account is a Gnosis Safe controlled by your wallet.
The attacker got one signed Safe transaction from me. Not an on-chain tx. An off-chain signature popup, the same kind you approve for every gasless order or withdrawal.
-That one signature did everything at once. Removed me as owner, installed the attacker as sole owner, moved all 8 positions out.
Safe signatures don’t expire, so it was executed days after capture, at 4am while I slept.

- I know the key is safe. My main wallet has 1,100+ txs on Ethereum and assets on six chains. No new approvals or losses anywhere else.
Private-Key thieves empty everything in minutes. This attacker could only touch the one Safe the signature was scoped to.
Treating every signature popup like an onchain transaction is probably best practice, as Polymarket support is readily available to send a generic mail everytime.

So many people have DM’d me about this trailer and I’ll be honest, watching it made me physically throw up.
I was COO from before FTX even had a name, it was my baby, and I was the last one out of the Bahamas after Sam got extradited. I lost everything I had on it and it took me a long time to get over, so I have zero interest in defending the people who caused this.
The media loves the story that FTX blew up because we were all partying in the Bahamas, but the place I worked looked nothing like that.
We had under 200 people in the core company at its peak, not counting subsidiaries, when other exchanges our size had thousands, so a lot of us were doing 16 to 18 hour days for over three years and barely had time to sleep, and whenever we walked in, day or night, Sam was at his desk.
I worked with Caroline and never once saw her get aggressive like she does in this trailer. She’s quiet and mild, and often lost in her own thoughts.
Most of us didn’t even know she and Sam were dating until we read about it after the bankruptcy, and I never saw him so much as put an arm around anyone.
FTX’s collapse ruined so many people’s lives, including ours, and Netflix decided to make it a love story.
Shame on you @netflix.
No need to force myself to finish a book, I will keep stopping when I’m bored, and picking a new one I have no troubles finishing.

Some celebrities be a little too hard on teachers that ain’t believe they’d make.
As a former classmate, I, too didn’t believe.
