Odaily News: Hardware wallet Coldcard has suffered a hack, with no confirmed total loss amount yet. Blockchain analytics platform CryptoQuant has confirmed losses of 1,432 BTC, while Galaxy Research places a high-confidence minimum estimate at 1,730 BTC. Other analyses suggest the scale of losses could be even higher.
Research firm Galaxy Research stated that its earlier estimate of 1,816 BTC represents a potential figure, not a confirmed total. As of Tuesday, the firm's confirmed high-confidence minimum loss stands at 1,730 BTC, with over 450 BTC directly confirmed based on victim reports.
Blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs estimates that the attacker moved approximately 1,816 BTC from more than 5,200 addresses in four phases. CryptoQuant stated that its confirmed figures only include addresses publicly disclosed by victims and verified through on-chain patterns, meaning the tally could rise as more victims come forward with information.
