PANews reported on December 29th that Trust Wallet CEO Eowync.eth released an update on the browser extension v2.68 security incident on the X platform, stating that the team has confirmed 2,596 affected wallet addresses and has received approximately 5,000 compensation claims, including numerous duplicate or invalid submissions attempting to fraudulently claim victim compensation. Accurately verifying wallet ownership is currently the core focus of the work, and the team is using multiple data cross-validation methods to distinguish between genuine victims and malicious submitters. This verification work is proceeding concurrently with the forensic investigation, and some cases have reached relatively clear conclusions, but the overall process is still ongoing. The team will prioritize accuracy over speed, ensuring the safe return of funds to the correct users, and will release further progress information as soon as possible, with an update expected within the next day.
