#加密支付 When I saw this news, my first reaction was to feel sorry for those two employees. In just 30 seconds, 1 billion yen was gone, and the behind-the-scenes loss and psychological impact are unimaginable. But what’s more worth our deep reflection is the systemic risk exposed by this incident.



The scenario of large offline cryptocurrency exchanges essentially combines the characteristics of "high value + high liquidity + difficult to trace." The reason why criminals dare to strike is precisely because they see the vulnerabilities in the conversion from cash to virtual assets—there is no real-time fund freezing mechanism, and no robust tracing channels. This is not an isolated incident but a structural weakness in the entire chain design.

I want to especially remind everyone of a few points. First, never treat large fund transfers as routine operations. If your business truly requires cryptocurrency transactions, they should be conducted through legitimate licensed institutions online, not through offline cash exchanges. Second, even if offline operations are necessary, risk should be diversified—don’t put all your chips on a single transaction, and never let a few people bear all the responsibility. Lastly, the cost of security measures is always much lower than the cost of losses.

Long-term stable asset management is never about pursuing short-term efficiency but about leaving enough safety margins at every step. Although this incident is regrettable, if it can make more people pay attention to these details, it will have some significance.
