Odaily reported that 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.

Currently, multiple parties within the Bitcoin and crypto industry are assisting in user asset protection and attack tracing efforts.
