A Broader Trust Test for Crypto Infrastructure

[johnblockbuster]

The Flow incident unfolded alongside another high-profile security issue, as Trust Wallet disclosed a browser extension exploit that led to millions in losses. Together, the events highlight ongoing fragility at the edges of crypto infrastructure — from smart contracts to wallets and exchanges.

For Flow, the focus now is on transparent recovery rather than drastic intervention. For the broader industry, these episodes underline a recurring challenge: balancing speed, decentralization, and user protection when things go wrong. How networks and service providers respond may matter as much as the exploits themselves in rebuilding long-term trust.
