RE: 7 ways in which hackers can steal your cryptocurrencys
Curious to know if Steem has a 12 - 24 word seed that's used on the backend server to generate the private keys? While I know holding in offline cold wallets like Trezor can prevent a lot of this. Investing in Steem for steem power is a vulnerability that would seem ripe for goxxing, especially if Steemit becomes the next FB.
Yesterday I opened a post about ethereum that had a link to see the news. After I selected it, I was shown the same dialog box with steemit asking me for the password to enter. I realized it was a trap to get my password. you have to be very aware.
Yes, seeing those "Glitsch on Steemit" are a dead giveaway. Lots of space below before the Cheeta bot labels it. I don't bother if you have to go through hoops.
