    It has to be something else, being connected to a site does not exposed your private key. Some of the probabilities that can happened to you are the following:
    - You accidently showed the private key while streaming
    - Place or a note that you keep your private key (your digital notepad, google drive, dropbox anything) is compromised
    - You accidently tried to restore your metamask wallet using secret phrase but into the phising site not on metamask
    - Somebody got hold into your computer
    - Most hacks occurred on Windows
    Edited:
    - Downloading illegal files (such as torrent files - movies, software and etc) can infect your machine as well, especially in Windows
    I would suggest you really go through every possibility because if you do not get rid of the problem, this can happened to you again

    I feel your pain man, I lost my wallet in the same way, except mine was a much larger loss, about 5X more. :(. What happened to me was that I fell for a fake site that involved bridging a token from ETH to BSC. The hackers created a site that looked just like the real one, and I connected my wallet and fell for it. Just to emphasize this to everyone, it's not just your seed phrase you have to be careful with, it's the QR code associated with it. If it even hints of scam, don't do it, it’s not worth it. The token I was trying to bridge was only worth $400. This little thing destroyed my whole wallet, full of staked tokens and other stuff worth thousands. I learned my lesson and will continue to invest, although with more extreme caution!! That is crypto.

      Bro if you are someone who has experience on investing in crypto, you would know to use a hardware wallet(ledger nano x, trezor) instead of a software wallet to store your crypto. Instead of making youtube videos and trying to teach others about investing, why dont you learn about safe ways to store your crypto and actually invest in a solid hardware wallet. No one can hack or steal your crypto if you did that 🤦🏽‍♂️

    Thank you for this video. The exact same thing happened to me a week ago. I didn’t lose as much as you, I lost 4k, but it feels really though. It’s one thing to lose 4k from your bank account, but to lose 4k that you put into an investment that you believe in and paid expensive gas fees to get really hurts. And it doesn’t help to see my money grow on a different account on Etherscan and basically as you said can’t do nothing about it. My Ledger Nano X is on its way, not using MetaMask again until I get it.
    Good luck with your future investments brother!

    Wow you're so chill after that loss, congrats an sorry :s.
    One thing that might help in the future is layering your security and changing accounts.
    Have a wallet for each trust level you give to each website. For exemple you can have an harware wallet ofc, but also you can have multiple accounts on one metamask setup and transfer funds between them. I use one account for testing new sites and switch "risky" accounts regulary. It's not uncommon that I create a new account just to test one fishy website.
    I also try to review my accesses on debank from time to time and completely retire every hot wallet I have 4 times a year.
    Hope it helps, not sure about the VPN though, really depends on the provider.
