2025, and people still haven't learned. The most common password across America? A single, laughably simple word.

You'd think with all the hacks, breaches, and wallet drains we've seen, folks would wise up. But nope. Same lazy habits, different year.

If you're in crypto, this should terrify you. Weak passwords = easy targets. Whether it's your exchange account, your email, or that MetaMask seed phrase backup—security starts with the basics.

Two-factor authentication. Password managers. Unique passphrases for everything. It's not paranoia, it's survival in a world where one slip costs you everything.

Really, every time I see news like this, I just want to laugh... People just can't learn, they really can't. Passwords are really simple, yet there are still people who use them. People in the crypto circle need to be more careful; a weak password can empty your account, it's really not an exaggeration.

Laughing to death, using a single word as a password? Be Played for Suckers machines should be laid off, our own people are the first to get themselves high.

It's this trap again, does it take someone to die every time for people to learn? I'm laughing to death.

Really, every time I see news like this, I want to smash my keyboard. People in the crypto world are still using "password" as their password? Wake up, everyone, this isn't a game; a weak password can send your years of assets to someone else. I know someone who suffered a huge loss because of this... Is it really that hard to press a button for 2FA?

Ngl, these people are really out of their minds. It's 2025 and they're still using weak passwords. They'll regret it when their accounts get hacked.
