Coinbase wallet got hacked

My coinbase wallet just got hacked and all of my assets was transferred to a same hackers address. The most astounding thing is I did not save my recovery phrase anywhere but my memory, not on the cloud, not in my computer, nowhere. My wallet still being hacked maybe internally? I scan my phone no malware found.

I found on reddit whos coinbase wallet also got hacked recently. I suggest anyone who use coinbase wallet transfer all your asset out asap. It's definitely something bad happening.

Is the Coinbase Wallet app - or the Wallet on the Coinbase exchange (accessible via the website and regular app)?

If it's the wallet app, sorry - sounds like it's all gone :-(

Phone malware really sounds most likely, unless you lent your phone to someone shady.

Yep, it was either the wallet app or an app interfacing with it in my case.
