🚨 1,082 BTC WITHDRAWN IN 41 MINUTES
This is no longer just another transfer on the blockchain.
Attackers drained several Bitcoin addresses and, in about 41 minutes, moved 1,082 BTC — tens of millions of dollars at the current $BTC price.
What’s especially interesting is that the incident description mentions Coldcard — one of the popular hardware wallets for storing Bitcoin.
But here’s the key detail: that doesn’t mean Coldcard was hacked. There aren’t enough details yet to say exactly how the attackers gained access to the funds and whether the device itself is related to the attack.
And here’s what I’m most curious about in this story:
🔐 If the funds were stored offline, how did the attackers manage to gain control of the addresses?
Maybe the answer will reveal the main weakness of the entire scheme.
If you keep $BTC in a cold wallet — have you checked recently whether everything is set up securely?
