"My NFTS /cryptos were stolen"
We regularly see those on Twitter.
But why do we automatically assume this is true?
Sure, you can verify on the blockchain assets were moved or even bad transactions were signed.
But we actually never know if they were "stolen"...
We should always be careful with definitive conclusions. even though the truth is on-chain the context is never on-chain
Was it stolen? Was it engineered to look stolen? Is that an easy tax loss trick?
So how can we really know?
1. social clout confirmation? (others can confirm)
2. details of the hack/attacks are convincing
3. the addresses involved are shared
4. a police investigation is happening.
5. exchanges are notified (they know)
But never assume a statement made on twitter is true at face value.
The same goes for "this NFT was "sold""
You never if this was sold to a legit 3rd party or to oneself...
