I just got hit for a ton of eth 3 meta wallets drained. Anyone heard anything or could help point me in the right direction of what to do? No idea how they accessed my funds.

Depends on the password manager. With something like KeePassXC, only you have the encrypted passwords file and it’s not on some server.
Nope no never absolutely not.
Just a couple weeks ago I saw a thread where keepass was the culprit.
NEVER USE A PASSWORD MANAGER
That’s absurd
Edited my comment, as it was not clear what I meant.
You went from saying “absolutely never use a password manager” and further down the thread you say you’re using your foreskin.
Now you’re back tracking that all to pretend to be right?
That’s absurd!
Great, but if KeePassXC is on an online device then it’s vulnerable to being hacked.
You can just store a copy of keepass along with your file on a USB and access it that way, never has not be online.
KeePass DB is vulnerable if they can crack the master password. If your master password has enough entropy that it would take so many million years to brute force, then you’ll be fine.
The Keepass DB can be cracked. https://medium.com/@andreabocchetti88/unlocking-keepass-a-comprehensive-guide-to-crack-the-database-74a2593d676a
I kept a few seeds in my Keepass, I have since removed them after someone at work warned me about this.
That link describes hashcat which uses some of the methods I’m referring to, it’s dependent on the password quality. Crappy password will be quick.
It doesn’t decrypt it, but tries many combinations of words etc encrypted to compare against the hash.
Even with a good password, I never would want anyone storing seeds in keepass, anything on the computer is a no for storing seeds.
Anything can be cracked this way, this is just a bruteforce of the master password. It can take 300 centuries to crack using NSA servers if it’s a strong password.
