500 Coldcard hardware wallets hacked, $40 million in Bitcoin stolen
AI مارکیٹ کا خلاصہ
Roughly 4,000 BTC (~$40m) were reportedly stolen after 500 Coldcard hardware wallets were compromised, exposing offline private keys. The incident targets self-custody infrastructure rather than exchanges, raising near-term risk awareness around hardware wallet supply chain integrity, firmware update practices, and backup procedures. This can temporarily weigh on crypto sentiment and increase scrutiny of wallet security assumptions as on-chain tracking continues.

About 4,000 bitcoins—worth roughly $40 million at the time—were stolen after 500 Coldcard hardware wallets were compromised, according to a news alert. Coldcard, an open-source Bitcoin cold-storage device widely considered trusted, was hit by a flaw that unexpectedly exposed users’ offline private keys. The stolen funds have been moved to an unknown address, and on-chain tracking is ongoing. The incident did not involve an exchange or custodial platform, prompting renewed scrutiny of hardware wallet firmware updates, physical side-channel protections, and seed-phrase backup procedures.
