Notice that the hacking is mostly happening with centralized venues. And that is to say nothing of FTX, Celsius etc.

The original promise of crypto and blockchain was to cut out the middleman and NOT concentrate a lot of money under a few custodial keys.

If you took your crypto off exchanges when not in use, you’d be fine. Not your keys, not your crypto.

That's not true at all. There have been so many smart contract hacks in the past.

Did you miss the recent hacks of bitcoin hardware wallets, like Ledger and ColdCard?
