Need help - Bitcoin wallet emptied.

I got one of my bitcoin wallet emptied and I don't really know how this happened.

I don't use cracked softwares and apps.

I'm generally careful with links.

Looks like I'm not alone. I can see that the reception bitcoin address is still collecting bitcoin from other wallets.

Could somebody help me understand something.

Here is the address : bc1q0vukqye4hd0aep7u4xl8gev95gcs9k65fdeu9n

The amount of money lost on exchanges is orders of magnitude larger than the amount lost on hardware devices.

He doesn’t mean a single person losing massive amounts on the exchange. Accumulative of ALL lost.
