A maximum of 1159 stolen BTC assets remain frozen, and the COLDCARD attackers have begun to launder smaller amounts of funds

2026-08-06 05:37:52

According to monitoring by Bitcoin News, Galaxy Research stated that the largest known COLDCARD theft involved 1159 BTC, spread across seven attacker addresses, which have not yet been utilized, with 0 BTC cashed out or transferred through mixers. The related BTC was stolen within 41 minutes, but approximately 600 attacker addresses have been flagged by law enforcement, exchanges, and blockchain analysis companies.

Meanwhile, a smaller-scale attacker seems to have begun laundering funds. On-chain analysts tracked 64 BTC entering a mixer, of which only about 10 BTC were initially mixed, and 54 BTC were returned as change, which was then split into outputs of about 7 BTC for further mixing. Analysts noted that these unusually large outputs remain easy to trace, making this laundering attempt relatively transparent.
