Odaily Planet Daily News Bitcoin News posted on X platform, stating that MARA's Slipstream is now open as a permissionless public service, requiring no client software. This service is particularly important for users transferring funds from vulnerable COLDCARD wallets. Multi-signature spending exposes all public keys and spending conditions. If this transaction enters the public mempool, attackers can immediately match these keys against their pre-computed database of weak COLDCARD private keys, and if they control the majority of keys, broadcast a higher-fee double-spend transaction before the original transaction is confirmed. Slipstream submits transactions directly to miners, keeping them out of the public mempool until mined. MARA recommends using conservative fees to avoid transactions getting stuck. Aside from standard Bitcoin network fees, the service is currently free.
