Seeing a data report really gives me the creeps. The stolen crypto accounts on the dark web are actually sold for an average of only $105. No joke, this price might not even cover a decent dinner, but it's enough for hackers to wipe out all your digital assets.

What’s even more heartbreaking is that behind this, a streamlined black market ecosystem has already formed. Automated phishing attacks collect credentials, Telegram bots sell stolen login information in real-time, and professional management panels perform bulk cleaning and resale—your accumulated digital wealth is just a listed commodity in the eyes of hackers.

Where is the core issue? Frankly, we are still using the old generation of account password systems to protect assets of this era. Centralized login portals, easily phishing private keys, security verifications relying on human caution—these are single points of failure, precisely the vulnerabilities that black markets are eager to exploit.

This leads to a more fundamental question: Can Web3 establish a completely different trust mechanism that no longer relies on easily breakable "password locks"?

The answer points to decentralized data verification networks. The core logic of this new architecture is—using multi-node consensus to replace single trust points, and on-chain verifiable proofs to replace those tamperable centralized databases. Although currently such infrastructure mainly provides trusted on-chain price data, the underlying idea is the direction future security systems need to take.

Imagine if our identity verification and asset management could be built on such a decentralized foundation—then even if a single node is compromised, the entire system remains secure. That would be the true Web3 paradigm.
