🔥 Bitcoin Wallet Maker Trezor Says Hackers Breached Its Email Provider.

Please be aware that the email named Critical Security Alert: STM32 Entropy Vulnerability is not coming from us, and its a phishing attempt. Do not click on any link, Trezor wrote on X. Trezor said it took down the domain used in the attack and is investigating how hackers gained access to its legitimate domain. The fake Trezor email claims the company's engineers discovered a critical hardware-level vulnerability in STM32 microcontrollers used in its devices.

It then falsely claims the defect affects an estimated one in four devices and could leave recovery phrases with insufficient randomness, or entropy, likely playing on fears related to the recent Coldcard exploit that cost users over $130 million in Bitcoin. Trezor issued a statement calling the email fraudulent and warning its users just after 4:30 p.m. Easter Time, but it came hours after several users reported receiving the phishing scam from what appeared to be a legitimate Trezor email address. Casa co-founder and CEO Nick Neuman said the campaign may extend beyond Trezor, adding hed heard the same from Bitbox users as well.

🔥 Mexican Musician and Family Killed Over Bitcoin Cold Wallet Believed to Hold Millions.

According to a report by IBTimes UK, Melndez, his pregnant wife Ana Paula Barragn, their three-year-old daughter Sofa, and 21-year-old domestic worker Aleyda Romero were found dead at the familys home in Atizapn de Zaragoza, State of Mexico, on September 1. The couples six-year-old son survived. State prosecutors said the suspects allegedly entered the home searching for a cold wallet they believed contained million-dollar amounts in Bitcoin. Authorities identified the suspects as Diego Sebastin and Gerardo, using N in place of their surnames in accordance with Mexican privacy rules for criminal proceedings. Diego Sebastin, a business associate of Melndez, allegedly used their relationship to gain access and offered Gerardo 2 million pesos, about $118,000, to help obtain the crypto.

Both were arrested on September 2. Cold wallets dont store Bitcoin itself; instead, they are typically devices also known as hardware wallets, like the popular Ledger, Trezor, or the air-gapped Coldcard, that store the private keys that control access to the funds. While cold wallets protect against many online attacks, they do not eliminate physical threats, as criminals can target holders directly to gain access to their wallets. The killings are the latest in an increase in physical attacks targeting crypto holders.

Overview of the TRON wallet ecosystem
TRON wallets operate as non-custodial software or hardware gateways to manage $TRX and TRC-20 tokens, especially USDT-TRC20, and to interact with TRON’s native dApps.
Resource model (energy and bandwidth): Unlike conventional fee structures, TRON wallets allow users to store $TRX to generate bandwidth (for regular transfers) and energy (to execute smart contracts such as USDT), which significantly reduces or even eliminates gas fees.
Key native features: Non-custodial wallets enable direct voting for TRON’s Super Representatives (SRs) to earn storage rewards, participate in governance, and manage multi-signature accounts.
Highlights of the ecosystem options:
TronLink: the main native TRON browser extension and mobile wallet, providing full resource management and access to Web3 applications.
Klever Wallet: a popular mobile-focused option that supports multiple chains, offering built-in storage and token swapping.
MetaMask and multi-chain support: Non-custodial wallets with broader support, including MetaMask, native TRON accounts, and cross-chain transactions for TRC-20 tokens.

🔥 Coldcard Hacker Moves $7.7M, Nearly Half of Third-Wave Bitcoin Haul.

Image: DecryptCreate an account to save your articles.Add on GoogleAdd Decrypt as your preferred source to see more of our stories on Google.In brief Galaxy Research said Monday that 97.09 BTC, worth about $7.7 million, has left the Wave 3 vaults. The coins went out through THORChain on September 2 and into CoinJoin rounds over the weekend. Across the whole Coldcard exploit, 82% of the stolen Bitcoin has still not moved. The attacker behind the third wave of thefts from Coldcard hardware wallets has moved 97.09 BTC, roughly 45% of that wave's haul and about $7.7 million at Monday's prices, according to Galaxy Research. The first exit came on September 2, when around 20.5 BTC from the largest vault went through THORChain and came out as Ethereum.

The coins spent on Sunday night went into CoinJoin rounds instead, a Bitcoin privacy technique that pools transactions from multiple users to break the trail between inputs and outputs. Only 20.56 BTC actually reached Ethereum. Another 57.24 BTC is sitting unspent as CoinJoin change in a single address, and Galaxy says its trail ends on roughly 19 BTC more. Coldcard Wave 3 exploiter continues to move funds In wave 3, the exploiter created 293 2-of-2 multisig vaults for each victims coins. The first movements on 9/2 sent coins over THORChain to Ethereum.

Developer Craig Raw said the review produced most of the updates fixes. He found no signs of exploitation but recommends updating. Privacy-focused Bitcoin wallet developer Sparrow Wallet released version 2.5.4 on Thursday after an AI-assisted code review that yielded most of the updates fixes, developer Craig Raw told Decrypt.

Raw said the review was prompted primarily by the release of unrestricted Chinese AI models and the new ability to search large codebases for potential exploits. He did not identify the models used to review Sparrow. The review followed a July attack involving a flaw in Coldcards seed-generation code. The vulnerability allowed an attacker to reconstruct private keys without accessing the physical devices.

🔥 Coldcard Adds New Security Measures After $130 Million Bitcoin Exploit.

Image: DecryptCreate an account to save your articles.Add on GoogleAdd Decrypt as your preferred source to see more of our stories on Google.In brief Coinkite released new Coldcard firmware after a seed-generation flaw exposed users to more than $100 million in Bitcoin thefts. Coldcard now requires users to add randomness through key presses, dice rolls, or coin flips when generating new seeds. A three-week review also uncovered issues involving transaction signing, USB connections, backups, and other wallet functions. Coldcard maker Coinkite has released a security overhaul for its Bitcoin hardware wallets after a seed-generation flaw allowed attackers to steal more than $100 million in Bitcoin.

In a blog post on Thursday, Coinkite urged Coldcard Mk4, Mk5, and Q users to upgrade to firmware 5.6.1 or 1.5.1Q. The release follows a three-week review of Coldcard's systems that included outside security researchers and AI models including Kimi. We are grateful to the security researchers who went above and beyond over the past weeks, reporting issues, reproducing edge cases, and reviewing our fixes, the company wrote. Their work put this firmware under intense, sustained scrutiny and made this release stronger. In July, attackers began draining Bitcoin from air-gapped Coldcard wallets after exploiting a firmware flaw dating to 2021 that generated some wallet seeds with too little randomness, making their private keys easier to guess.

Where Does Your Crypto Actually Live?
A crypto wallet doesn't really hold your coins inside the app.

Your assets remain recorded on the blockchain — the wallet gives you the tools and keys to access them.

🔥 Hot Wallet vs. Cold Wallet
🌐 Hot Wallet
Connected to the internet
Convenient for frequent transactions
Quick access to your funds
Greater exposure to online threats
❄️ Cold Wallet
Usually kept offline
Better suited for long-term storage
Less exposed to online attacks
Requires more care when accessing funds
🧠 The key difference?

Hot wallets = convenience
Cold wallets = offline security
Neither option is automatically perfect for everyone. The right choice depends on how often you transact and how you manage your security.

⚠️ Never share your seed phrase or private keys with anyone.

🔥 Fake Crypto AML Checkers Are Trying to Drain Users' Wallets.

The sites impersonate legitimate services such as AMLBot and use fake scans and results to appear legitimate. A basic AML check only requires a public wallet address, not a wallet connection or transaction approval. Scammers are targeting crypto holders with fake anti-money laundering services designed to trick users into approving transactions that could put their digital assets at risk, cybersecurity firm Malwarebytes warned. In a report published Wednesday, Malwarebytes said the sites impersonate services that check whether crypto wallets have interacted with stolen or illicit funds.

Some mimic the legitimate service AMLBot, while others use generic names such as AML Check. Crypto AML services check a wallet's public transaction history for links to hacks, scams, sanctioned entities, and other suspicious activity. A basic check only requires a wallet's public address and does not require users to connect their wallet, approve permissions, or sign a transaction. According to Malwarebytes, the fake sites prompt users to connect their crypto wallets for an AML check, then simulate the process with fake progress messages and results. One site asked users for a small top-up to cover a supposed fee before returning a Clean, Low Risk result, regardless of whether a genuine check occurred.

Crypto Wallets — Do You Really Know Who Controls Your Funds?

Your crypto isn't actually stored inside a wallet app. The assets exist on the blockchain; the wallet manages the keys that let you access and control them. �
Binance +1
But here's the important part 👇
Custodial vs. Non-Custodial
🏦 Custodial Wallet
A third party controls the private keys
Easier for beginners
Account recovery may be available
You depend on the provider
🔑 Non-Custodial Wallet
You control your own private keys
Greater direct control
No third party holds your keys
You are responsible for your recovery phrase
⚡ The real lesson
Convenience vs. Control.
Before choosing a wallet, understand who actually controls the keys.
And never share your seed phrase/private key with anyone. �

🔥 Bitcoin Wallet Maker BitBox Says AI Found Severe Flaws in Firmware.

Image: Shutterstock/DecryptCreate an account to save your articles.Add on GoogleAdd Decrypt as your preferred source to see more of our stories on Google.In brief BitBox shipped the Dixence update after internal AI audits found two severe vulnerabilities plus a bootloader issue. Exploiting them required a successful phishing attack plus the user unlocking a tampered device. BitBox says no user funds were stolen and the wallet seed was never at risk. BitBox, the Zurich-based maker behind the BitBox02, released the Dixence security update this week after its own engineers uncovered two severe flaws in the cryptocurrency wallet's firmware. The company disclosed the issues itself, with no evidence they were ever exploited.

But the news itself is likely enough to set off the alarms of most Bitcoin holders, given the recent exploit of hardware wallet maker Coldcard thats resulted in over $130 million in stolen BTC. For BitBox, the first problem lives in the bootloader, the code that decides which firmware a device will accept. A fix shipped in July's Oeschinen release (v9.26.2) closed most of it, but BitBox now says the original issue was worse than first reported. An attacker who ran a phishing scamtricking a user into installing a fake BitBoxApp and unlocking the devicecould have loaded malicious firmware onto a genuine BitBox02 and walked off with the coins. The BitBox02 Nova, the newer model, was never exposed because of its bootloader version.

🔥 Another Dormant Bitcoin Wallet Holding Millions Wakes Up After 12 Years.

Galaxy Research tracked the move; the position carries a potential realized gain of roughly $1.73 million, up 7,975% on an ~$803 average cost. It's the second old-coin awakening flagged this month, after a 2011 wallet moved 49.97 BTC on August 6. Another long-time dormant Bitcoin address just woke upthis one after 12 and a half years of inactivity.

The Bitcoin wallet beginning in 14vMEC first took in BTC on January 31, 2014, when BTC traded well under $1,000. It held for 12.5 years before a single transaction swept the balance to a fresh address in block 961845 at 07:03 UTC on August 10. The move could potentially realize a gain of about $1.73 million, a 7,975% return on an average basis near $803 per coin. That return profile is specific to Bitcoin's early years, when the asset was a thinly traded experiment rather than a $1.3 trillion market.
