SlowMist 23pds: Public WiFi itself does not steal coins; a user at Singapore Airport claims 3.7 BNB was transferred away after connecting to free network.

Wu Block said it learned that SlowMist Chief Information Security Officer 23pds tweeted that public WiFi does not steal coins; what steals coins is a phishing page opened through fake WiFi, combined with the user's own action of signing a transaction or importing a private key; what website is visited and what operations are performed after connecting are the core factors determining whether asset losses will occur. Previously, X user @Xiaoyu_184CM tweeted that after connecting to free WiFi at Singapore Changi Airport, a secondary wallet with no transactions for several months had 3.7 BNB transferred out. Binance founder CZ responded that he has always advised against connecting to public WiFi, but merely connecting to WiFi should not cause a wallet to be stolen, and asked whether there were other operations in between. Crypto KOL AB KuaiDong speculated that someone may have specially set up free WiFi with a modified router; Xiaoyu said he thought that was probably the case.
