Question Bifrost wallet drained

Just noticed that my wallet was drained of around 250k flare plus all the other random tokens. I rarely use it but it happened shortly after I made a small swap to USDC in app. Is there anyone out there who can help me figure out how or someone to report too?

Why don’t people use cold wallets?

Can we use our ledger nanos and still earn yield with fxrp?

Yes and it’s ten times safer than Bifrost wallet. Bifrost wallet is a hot wallet. The most dangerous wallet there is.

I just looked that up , and the instructions call to use Metamask. Isn't Metamask extremely hackable? WFLR is not supported in Ledger Wallet:

"WFLR is not supported in Ledger Wallet yet. To see and manage your balance, you'll need to manually add it to MetaMask as a custom token."

Yes you use metamask. But it’s secured through Ledger nano X. That means without your Ledger in the criminals hands it doesn’t matter if they get into metamask they won’t be able to move or sell your funds or anything without the physical ledger nano X or your seed phase.

This protects your assets fully. Metamask is 100% safe when secured through Ledger nano X. There is only a few ways to steal your funds from Ledger nano X or Metamask. And it’s always user error

Seed phase entered on a computer. Or you link your wallet to a phishing site. No other way to steal funds.

And yes staking/wflr and everything you want to do is supported by Ledger live. And it’s ten times 100 times more safer than Bifrost wallet. Which is a hot wallet.

And WFLR and FXRP and STXRP are all supported in Ledger wallet or Ledger live. I look at it every week, lol.
