SlowMist: When using a wallet at risk of theft, always disconnect from the internet before exporting the mnemonic phrase to transfer assets

ChainCatcher reports that 23pds, Chief Information Security Officer at SlowMist Technology, posted on social media stating, ‘Users employing wallet versions that have been persistently compromised must first disconnect from the internet, then export the mnemonic phrase to transfer assets. Otherwise, opening the wallet online may lead to theft. For wallets where the mnemonic phrase has already been backed up, it is essential to transfer assets first before upgrading the wallet.’
