If you've ever posted your wallet address, or anything that might indicate you have a significant amount of cryptocurrency, I recommend going back and deleting it. Even if you're not a public figure, it's not difficult to find someone's home address. These kinds of attacks are becoming more common.

this thread by @malwaretech.com is a legitimately good take on why the TikTok ban shouldn't have even made it nearly this far. yes, China is a threat but the US has shit itself over the wrong things. we haven't even recovered from Salt Typhoon yet, and those routers aren't owned by TikTok, y'all...
