Gate and BlockSec Launch Security Course on Phishing and Account Theft

The Cheng v. T-Mobile case is a useful teaching device because the failure was human, not cryptographic: an account takeover converted into a voluntary transfer. Education is the only control that addresses that link, and it is also the hardest to verify or enforce. The more concrete signal sits in Gate's mandatory 24- to 48-hour cooling-off period on new wallet addresses, a friction-based delay that trades convenience for a window in which a manipulated transfer can still be interrupted. Whether such delays become standard across custodial platforms, rather than a single-exchange feature, is the open question.
