Damage control done right: The platform froze withdrawals within minutes, traced funds in real-time, and kept users updated hourly. Even crypto skeptics admit it’s a masterclass in transparency.

The cynical twist: Imagine if banks needed ‘praise’ for basic security hygiene. Welcome to Web3, where not losing client funds is now a competitive advantage.
