SafePal is a hardware and software cryptocurrency wallet founded in 2018 by Veronica Wong and incubated by Binance Labs, with over 10 million claimed users. The platform has been surrounded by multiple serious security incidents including a malicious Firefox extension that impersonated the wallet for seven months in 2021, a Binance-backed Launchpad token (SFP), hardware vulnerabilities disclosed by Kraken Security Labs, and a $6.5–7 million theft linked to a tampered hardware wallet sold via the Chinese platform Douyin (TikTok China). SafePal itself has not been hacked directly, but its brand has been repeatedly exploited by third-party threat actors, and ZachXBT has documented its wallets appearing in fund-laundering flows.
avoid.net/coinspot→58/100[CAUTIONARY]CoinSpot is an Australian cryptocurrency exchange operated by Casey Block Services Pty Ltd, registered with AUSTRAC since 2018 and holding an Australian Financial Services Licence as of 2026. The exchange has no record of regulatory findings of fraud or misconduct against it, but it has been the subject of a November 2023 hot-wallet security breach of roughly $2.4 million, a 2021 phishing campaign that impersonated its emails, and a recurring pattern of user complaints about withdrawal freezes and customer support. CoinSpot's own disclosure of the 2023 breach was minimal, and no attacker has been publicly identified or prosecuted.
