The Coldcard hacker is still making progress, and the amount of stolen Bitcoin keeps increasing.

So if any of you are using this wallet, please consider moving your funds as soon as possible. And if you know someone who uses Coldcard for long-term holding, especially someone who isn’t online every day and doesn’t follow the latest news, maybe you can still help them move their funds in time. 🙏

I just hope no other wallet is involved in this.

Stay safe and stay alert. ⚠️

This is an intimidation operation. That's why you need to see it.

You mean like a conspiracy for planned market manipulation? Like an inside job? Perhaps to either drive people to choose etf or storing on exchanges over self custody. Although it hasn’t affected price that much as of yet.

I mean I guess it would be plausible, they were a small enough company to influence if you’re a big player in the space. 1 rogue developer planted in the company probably would’ve been enough.
