BREAKING 🚨
Coldcard releases emergency firmware update after a $114 million Bitcoin theft, citing AI‑driven bug detection. 🔐
The breach exploited a flaw in Coldcard’s hardware‑wallet firmware, wiping $114 million from users and shaking confidence in offline storage solutions. Coldcard dedicated three weeks to a deep code review, during which engineers uncovered a series of unrelated vulnerabilities that had previously gone unnoticed. Leveraging AI‑driven static analysis, the team accelerated the identification of additional bugs, enabling a rapid patch deployment. Nevertheless, the new firmware cannot retroactively secure wallets already compromised, leaving those assets exposed and prompting users to transfer funds to new devices. Coldcard urges immediate installation, advises affected holders to move their Bitcoin, and Binance Square is monitoring the situation for potential market impact. 🛡️
Users should act now to protect remaining assets. ⚡
