The Builders Are Now the Targets

Podcast Description — Episode 63 This week on Crypto Weekly Recap, U.S. breaks down why crypto security is becoming operational security. From the TrapDoor package attack targeting developers, to the $5.4M Gravity Bridge drain, to fake Uniswap sites tricking users into dangerous approvals, this episode shows how the modern crypto attack surface is bigger than seed phrases and bad links. We also cover the rising risk of connecting wallets to AI agents without proper limits, why bridges remain one of crypto’s weakest points, and why everyday users need to treat wallet approvals like serious security decisions. In Beginner’s Corner, we explain what wallet approvals actually are and why one bad approval can put your tokens at risk. In the HundredCoin Spotlight, we look at why patience, discipline, and the 100-hour mechanic matter in a market addicted to speed. Learn more at HundredCoin.io.

This episode also dives into: • blind signing and malicious wallet approvals • social engineering attacks • operational security in crypto • why hardware wallets alone are not enough • how attackers are increasingly targeting human behavior instead of just code Plus this week’s Beginner’s Corner explains what blind signing is, how wallet drainers work, and why one careless approval can expose an entire wallet.

The AI Scam Era Has Officially Started

This week on Crypto Weekly Recap, we dive deep into the growing “exploit economy” taking over the crypto space. From massive DeFi breaches and fake Ledger hardware wallets to AI-powered deepfake scams and wallet drainers, the threat landscape is evolving faster than most investors realize.

This episode also covers: • AI-assisted crypto scams • Fake wallet and phishing operations • Wallet drainers explained for beginners • Why hardware wallets are not foolproof • AVAX institutional growth and CME futures • Why “security is utility” may become the defining narrative of the next crypto cycle Plus, we celebrate 3 years of HundredCoin and discuss why projects built around patience, protection, and behavioral architecture are starting to stand out in an increasingly chaotic market. If you care about self-custody, long-term survival, and protecting your capital in crypto, this is an episode you do not want to miss. Stay sharp. Stay skeptical. Keep it 💯
