ChainCatcher news, Binance co-founder Zhao Changpeng posted on X yesterday, "Recently, I've seen some people accepting cryptocurrency by receiving private keys or hardware wallets. This is a bad idea because the giver still has access to that cryptocurrency.

Allowing two people to access the same private key (or mnemonic phrase) is a bad idea. When these cryptocurrencies are moved (or hacked), it is almost impossible to prove who moved it (or was hacked)."
