Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Galaxy Research stated that the largest known COLDCARD theft incident involves 1,159 BTC, distributed across seven attacker addresses, which remain untouched to date, with 0 BTC cashed out or transferred through mixers. The relevant BTC was stolen within 41 minutes, but approximately 600 attacker addresses have been flagged by law enforcement agencies, exchanges, and blockchain analysis firms. Meanwhile, a smaller-scale attacker appears to have begun cleaning funds. On-chain analysts have tracked 64 BTC entering mixers, of which only about 10 BTC initially completed mixing, 54 BTC returned as change, and were subsequently split into outputs of approximately 7 BTC each for further mixing. Analysts noted that these unusually large outputs remain easy to trace, making this cleaning attempt relatively transparent.
Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Alex Thorn of Galaxy Research stated that researchers initially identified the first wave of COLDCARD thefts through a distinctive on-chain pattern: thousands of automated asset transfer transactions used the same fixed fee rate and exhibited identical transaction behavior. This characteristic enabled analysts to trace attacker activity across Bitcoin UTXO history and map out multiple rounds of coordinated theft.
Galaxy Digital Head of Research Alex Thorn stated that based on new victim reports received following the incident, the number of attackers exploiting the Coldcard vulnerability has reached at least 15.Thorn noted that information provided by victims helped the research team uncover previously unidentified attack activity. Unlike thefts from centralized exchanges, correlations between the attackers in this vulnerability exploit require confirmation through on-chain analysis and victim feedback.He added that a single victim reporting less than 1 BTC stolen helped the team discover a previously unknown attack, which siphoned approximately 12 BTC from 126 addresses.According to Galaxy Research's earlier estimates, the Coldcard vulnerability has led to at least three rounds of attacks, with losses amounting to approximately $100 million in BTC. Additionally, Galaxy has identified a suspected fourth round of attacks, which could bring total losses to approximately $130 million.Meanwhile, the incident has also sparked discussions regarding the security of Bitcoin self-custody. Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb Qureshi stated that "AI security hardening costing around $2" could potentially have prevented this vulnerability, and noted that some AI models were able to rediscover related vulnerabilities within a relatively short timeframe. However, industry insiders pointed out that current claims about the speed of AI discovering vulnerabilities lack rigorous blind testing and verification.Researchers believe that as AI model capabilities improve, the costs of vulnerability discovery and attacks in the crypto industry may continue to decline, requiring wallet developers to further strengthen code audits and security protections.

Galaxy 研究主管 Alex Thorn 发文表示，围绕 Coldcard 钱包的攻击事件仍在持续发展，目前已经出现更多小型攻击者和模仿者，针对剩余 Coldcard 助记词展开攻击，他称通过协助已确认一名攻击事件中存款用户的身份，相关资金在 Duel 平台能够冻结之前已经被转出，而且涉及的资金并不属于 Galaxy Research 此前识别出的三轮主要攻击浪潮。 此前，Coldcard 疑似安全事件引发市场关注，多名研究人员发现部分由 Coldcard 生成的钱包地址出现异常资金转移。Galaxy Research 仍在持续追踪攻击地址，并提醒仍使用相关钱包种子的用户尽快采取安全措施。此次事件也进一步凸显了硬件钱包安全、私钥管理以及自托管风险防范的重要性。
Galaxy Research stated in a post on X that the attack targeting wallet addresses generated with weak randomness by Coldcard is still ongoing. The team urges users to immediately migrate funds from affected Coldcard single-signature wallets to secure addresses.They stated that approximately 600 suspected attacker addresses have been submitted to federal investigators, industry compliance bodies, and cross-industry cybersecurity investigators. These addresses are believed to hold funds stolen from Coldcard wallets with weak randomness.The team also noted that victims have proactively shared wallet addresses and transaction hashes, helping researchers establish on-chain attack patterns and further identify more affected wallets and attack addresses. Currently, multiple parties within the Bitcoin and crypto industry are assisting in user asset protection and attack tracing efforts.Galaxy Research previously stated in a post on X that a third wave of attacks suspected to target Coldcard-generated addresses has emerged, with 207.7294 BTC already transferred out. According to on-chain tracking data, the Coldcard wallet attack incident has so far involved approximately 1,367.05 BTC, valued at approximately $88.6 million, affecting 4,585 addresses.
According to monitoring by on-chain analysis firm Galaxy Research (@glxyresearch), the ColdCard wallet hacking incident has developed into a third wave, with an additional 207.73 BTC stolen. Currently, the three waves of attacks have cumulatively stolen 1,367.05 BTC (approximately $88.6 million), involving 4,585 addresses. On-chain data shows that the three waves of attacks exhibit highly similar characteristics: identical fund consolidation topology, identical P2WPKH target addresses, and mixed derivation paths. Each wave occurred approximately 27 hours apart, suggesting they were carried out by the same attacker, but there is currently no direct evidence to confirm this. Currently, all terminal addresses controlled by the hackers hold a total of 1,366.39 BTC (approximately $88.6 million), all of which are in an unspent state on-chain. Galaxy Research noted that the above data is based solely on Bitcoin block data and UTXO set analysis, and has not yet computationally verified whether the victim addresses have vulnerabilities due to low-entropy generation.

A Bitcoin wallet that had been untouched since the end of 2017 transferred 5,907.56 BTC, valued at approximately $384 million, on Thursday, moving the funds to a new address. Data from Galaxy Research shows that these BTC were originally received on December 14, 2017, and were transferred in Bitcoin block 958217, around 00:15 UTC. The firm estimates that the position has appreciated by approximately $286 million compared to an average purchase price of around $17,000, representing a gain of 291%. The funds were transferred to a previously unidentified wallet, not a known exchange deposit address, and on-chain information does not indicate that the holder has sold the Bitcoin. This transfer also migrated the BTC from a legacy address starting with "1" to a newer bc1q address format.

According to a post by Alex Thorn (@intangiblecoins), Head of Research at Galaxy Research, metrics related to Bitcoin long-term holders have all reached all-time highs: Supply held for ≥10 years accounts for 17.7% Long-term holder holdings reach 16.75 million coins Long-term holder Realized Market Cap reaches $836.4 billion Long-term holder average cost basis reaches $50,000 The above data indicates that a large amount of holdings are firmly locked by long-term holders; even though the average price has reached $50,000, they refuse to sell. The market's actual circulating supply continues to tighten, and long-term holder behavior is building solid bottom support for Bitcoin prices.
