Compromised vs Security

Compromised in cryptocurrency security means that private keys, passwords, recovery phrases, or accounts have been exposed to unauthorized parties through security breaches, malware, phishing, or other attack methods, potentially enabling attackers to access or steal cryptocurrency assets.

Security in cryptocurrency refers to the protective measures, practices, and systems used to safeguard digital assets, private keys, and personal information from theft, loss, unauthorized access, or malicious attacks through self-custody responsibility.
