SlowMist's Yu Xian: an exchange Takes Down Page Allowing Plaintext Mnemonic Phrase Input for Asset Recovery
On March 26th, Yu Xian, the founder of SlowMist, announced that an exchange has taken down the page that allowed users to input plaintext mnemonic phrases for asset recovery. He stated that the security model for online web pages is inherently very low, significantly lower than extensions or apps. Furthermore, the practice of collecting plaintext mnemonic phrases on online web pages is easily imitated and learned by phishing websites, and has long been a common phishing tactic. Finally, as a well-known wallet provider, such actions that lower the wallet's security model should not exist from the perspective of user responsibility.

Last week, retail investors poured $6.1 billion into 3x leveraged chip ETFs, but suffered a 20.5% single-day plunge this Thursday, almost perfectly coinciding with the start of the rapid downturn. The cumulative decline in October has exceeded 43%, far surpassing the 15.9% loss of non-leveraged products during the same period. The root cause lies in the market’s skepticism toward AI investment returns. The most significant uncertainty is whether aggressive spending by tech giants will actually deliver on profit expectations, while the use of leverage has exponentially magnified the cost of this misjudgment.
