1. If there were a bug allowing hackers to empty your wallet, millions of Exodus wallets would be drained in half a day. That would be the biggest heist in crypto history.
2. If you mean the company behind the wallet is pickpocketing users for a few bucks, it’s highly unlikely. They wouldn’t destroy a multi million dollar business and investor trust just to steal a few bucks and get behind bars.
3. But a rogue employee is a very real possibility. One of the developers could have placed a backdoor in the wallet and occasionally stolen from a wallet at a time to avoid suspicion. But this is just an assumption with nothing to back it up. The wallet is safe unless proven otherwise.
4. In most cases, users download a fake wallet. Always download from the official website, not by searching in Google and clicking the first link. Google is fucked up.
5. The rest usually have some stealth malware on their computer actively searching for crypto to steal.
6. Every incident should be reported to support. If Exodus is at fault and you’ve reported it, that report is your proof that the funds were stolen and not sent by you, entitling you to compensation and other reliefs.
