One of the largest $ETH holders in the world launched his own blockchain, DEX, and peer-to-peer protocol, yet the majority of people are not paying attention..
Lets make a more exhaustive list of ways to "get hacked." Many of which I've mentioned before.
Weak RNG:
Use a wallet with a weak RNG (random number generator.) or other vulnerability. Some mobile wallets had this problem, and some vanity address generators had it too.
Someone has a camera watching your screen and you view your seeds.
You google a website and a scam site has done SEO or paid to be at the top of the search results
Fake "support" messages you by direct message, or on socials to help you with your wallet or problem.
Fake support pretends to be the exchange and asks you info they use to login as you and empty you, to "verify your account."
You accidentally leak your seed on a livestream (sounds erotic.)
You put your seed in plain text somewhere, and someone else finds it.
You use a brain wallet with a phrase from a book and people constantly scan the chain for common phrases from books.
You used an L2, and the L2 decided to take your money.
You used an exchange and they decided to take your money.
You used an exchange and they didn't decide to take your money, but got hacked or just exit scammed everyone at once
You installed malware. RAT (remote access trojan). Address replacer, (replaces the address you copied with their address instead of the one you wanted.)
You fell for vanity addresses made to look like one you've sent to in the past, but sent to you more recently, so when you look at the block explorer it looks like a previous legit address, same beginning and end, but the middle is different. People have lost lots of millions to this one recently, heck I think it's the majority of gas use on Ethereum now.
You gave your coins or money to someone else to invest. They lost it / stole it. You fell for a romance scam or pig butchering scam, or AI boss asked me to send money scam or whatever scam of the day is.
You installed an evil browswer extension.
The front end you used got DNS hijacked and now points to an evil dapp.
The X account you follow got hijacked and is now spreading malware links.
You installed an ok browser extension but it got bought by, or exploited by evil and auto updated to evil.
You set too wide a slippage trading on a DEX and got nuked.
The state takes half ur money, cuz, uh, divorce, or whatever reason.
You forget your seed words or don't write them down correctly.
Some guy at the airport security just images your device and decides to empty whatever wallet he finds.
You left a limit order in a wallet with no funds, but then you send funds one day and the stale order fills at a terrible price.
Basically, in computers, physical access defeats most countermeasures, so it's wise to not have any unencrypted seed on any single device in a single place ever.
You approved a dapp's permissions, but then one day the dapp gets evil, often by using an "upgradeable" proxy contract, becuase you never removed the permissions, or overapproved, or jsut shouldn't have ever used a contract wiht an upgradeable proxy ever, anyway.
Oh, yeah, you install malware by doing a job interview, or talking to a reporter, but they're actually just scammers. Devs also fall for this by cloning repo's and installing whatever evil is in them. So the impersonation thing, whether it's for interviews, or investors, or getting hired is a very, very common vector for getting people to install viruses on their machines. People also fall for other kinds of impersonation, people pretending to be their boss, or pretending they need bailed out using AI vids.
You use anything with an admin key.
I could probably think of more, and I've mentioned the majority of these on here before. Feel free to add.
DeFi didn't get hacked. AdminKeyFi got hacked. HEX, PulseChain, PulseX, & ProveX coins have no admin keys. Stop calling admin key crap and DAO controlled by a few dudes (admin keys, but with extra steps.) DeFi. It's not DeFi. Oh, and Arbitrum seized $70M of the hackers coins, and another chain introduced privacy (but with a view key they say they'll hand to the government if asked right.)
Some small portion of you figured out the solution. Follow me, learn from me, be saved. I can't save you from others choosing to click red instead of green, but I can teach you what's real and how to do things better. Much, much better.
Call to action! 💪 Tuesday 1/27 and Wednesday 1/28 in Temecula, Ca.

New features I feel will be releasing soon, but aren't out just yet. 1. https://t.co/YziFPT0ZbE code that supports trading AFTER graduation. 2. add/remove liquidity on same screen. 3. user profile shows token balance and $ val. 4. Protocol stats page. 5. Search in table by user address, username, type (trade, burn or liquidity.) 6. Full transaction history for each coin with full index of coin holder balances. 6. Updates from mined block to UI in about a second.
I hear someone is working on a multi-wallet https://t.co/XSf55kraIc as well.
I'm still here doing the right things. Lots of people are gone, or worse, doing the wrong things.
I persist.

Best community every! I'm so encouraged by all your kind words and interest in new and powerful technology! It's great to know there's so many people out there looking out for my best interests! You guys are awesome!
What is a Bull market?
People are happy, everyone is marking money.
Everything is making new ATHs
Random Shit you never heard of is popping off like popcorn.
Everyone dismisses bad news, the prices still go up.
Exchanges experience record high volumes and go down left an right.
Exchanges put holds on funds.
Everyone is calling you asking how to buy.
People line up to buy crypto just like the recent gold line.
Random idiots become legends simply because they bought something random and it went up.
You hear stories about how some guy bought something and forgot about it becomes a millionaire.
You can't open an app without seeing a crypto add.
You see people bragging about their PNL everywhere and being hailed an geniuses.
You can literally buy almost anything and get a 10x.
Crypto apps hold top ranking in app stores.
Top search words are Bitcoin and crypto channels report record views and subscriptions.
You are told you are stupid and feel stupid for not having crypto and every wants more crypto at any cost.
You are afraid to sell, you just know if you do the price is gonna do another 10x. You have absolutely no desire to quit.
So the only Bull in this current market is the Bull shit that you are currently in one.
Wouldn't it be cool if your favorite coin had a direct fiat on ramp with no middlemen? Wouldn't it be cool if when you wanted to sell, money nearly instantly appeared in your bank account? Wouldn't it be cool if you didn't have to beg exchanges to list your coins. Wouldn't it be cool if you didn't have to ever login to an exchange again?
Crypto was invented to remove middlemen. Exchanges are middlemen. MrProve with PrivateProver can solve this. And much more.
Exchanges are basically the worst part of the crypto infrastructure experience, and the time for the solution is now.
Looking forward to seeing more details on a website soon :)
Unit bias
How getting in too early, can screw you. Why there are so few people that even hold 10 BTC today even though they had a chance to buy them under a $1. Even being a one whole coiner is now some kinda status thing.
Crypto was invented to remove middlemen. Odd how crypto bros introduce as many middlemen and leverage and risk as they can possibly find. This stuff was invented to specifically protect you from all the stuff you're destroying yourself with.
I believe Richard Heart is the most misjudged and misunderstood man in crypto and that plays in our favor. Because once people witness what that man is all about, we will never have the opportunity to buy these assets at such cheap prices ever again.
People talk about his watches, his cars, his outfits.
They don’t get why he was doing it.
He wasn’t flexing wealth — he actually didn’t buy his first new car until he was in his 40’s
he was flexing proof-of-work ethic:
“I already made it. I have nothing to extract from you.”
That is the rarest moral credential in finance:
a rich man who builds things without needing your money.
Richard is a technologist, a builder, and an obsessive problem-solver who studies failure modes before he builds solutions. He is not a man who woke up and said “I want to make coins.” He was a retired billionaire who watched millions of people lose their life savings by trusting exchanges, lenders, traders, and middlemen and then decided to build alternatives that remove those points of failure.
Before crypto, he was already a serial entrepreneur. He understood virality, scaling, incentive design, and game theory.
HEX has proven that banking and finance today can be beaten with crypto-native instruments, built for the individual, not the institution.
HEX was created because the highest-returning behavior in all of finance — locking capital over time — had never been programmable on a blockchain. TradFi has CDs, bonds, pensions and annuities — but they all come with counterparty risk. HEX made the same function self-custodial, transparent, and immutable.
Why PulseChain (PLS)?
Richard saw Ethereum’s weakness: scalability and cost.
If your freedom is priced out with $200 gas fees, you don’t actually have permissionless finance. You have expensive finance.
PulseChain gives the same execution environment — but cheaper, faster, greener — so that the values of decentralization actually stay usable.
You cannot build freedom on rented infrastructure.
PulseChain is owning the rails instead of renting them.
Why PulseX (PLSX)?
Centralized exchanges are single points of failure. They steal. They freeze. They go insolvent. And yet almost all liquidity still ran through them.
PulseX solved that by making liquidity on-chain — permanent and user-controlled — with a deflationary mechanic that buys and burns from real usage.
It is a DEX that monetizes the one thing we know never stops in crypto: trading.
Why INC?
INC is the incentive layer that rewards the service of maintaining on-chain liquidity itself.
His real intention is not to stay the face —
It is to build something that no longer needs a face.
Richard Heart created HEX, PulseChain, PulseX, INC, and PumpTires for one reason:
to remove failure points that have already destroyed people’s lives and then replace them with code that cannot lie, cannot rug, cannot be bribed, and cannot disappear.
He is not trying to win your trust.
He is trying to make trust unnecessary.
The Unifying Intention (What is Richard actually trying to do?)
If you compress the thesis into one sentence: Build a vertically-integrated, user-owned financial stack where self-custody is normal, time is rewarded, and network activity compounds value for the people actually using the network.
HEX solved Counterparty risk + unrewarded time
PulseChain solved Censorship + expensive settlement
PulseX solved Centralized capture + abusive exchange models
INC solved Liquidity incentives without VC control
PumpTires solves virality and culture attraction
Richard Heart has engineered a complete alternative financial system, piece by piece
— one that is:
self-custodied
permissionless
immutable
deflationary
incentive-aligned
founder-independent over time
@RichardHeartWin isn’t just building tokens. He is building exile from failure.
He built these products for the same reason Satoshi built Bitcoin:
Not to fit inside the system — to make the system obsolete.
