Speaking of hacking...

It finally happened, I got hacked x3

It seems like it was destined to happen today and at the time it happened, as I was very tired and 'bleh' at that time, so I was mentally vulnerable, and the person was decent / kinda did their quick research (or dumb random guess).

From the looks of it, they got the saved accounts info from my browsers. So spent my time reseting email passwords and accounts and informing peepes just in case.

I wonder if they got this nostr account's nsec from the Alby extension or Satcom extension. 🤔

Used paid Kaspersky full scan to clean the PC. Hopefully that'll be enought to remove the Trojan/anything else.

Not bumbed out or anything, just annoyed that I've wasted my remaining day reseting everything and waiting on my PC to get cleaned.

But hey, the silver lining about this is that I now have direct experience with this so that it won't happened again =3

Back to nostr though, I hope the (something like) xpub and address pair trees gets developed and released soon, alongside a failsafe mechanism, so that I can properly secure my nostr account and announce a new address here.

Also sad that my streak ended. Oh well. I'm officially a boomer because of this x3

I mean, Kaspersky full is probably more of a virus than whatever they hit you with.

Hope your PC is in good health!
