I think the most sobering reality of the ColdCard hack is that “don’t trust, verify” is virtually impossible in practice. We all trust someone or something. All Bitcoiners trust Satoshi. Most of us trust Bitcoin Core (and if you don’t, you trust the Knots developers). We trust our hardware wallets developers, our exchange custodians, and our ETF brokers. We can minimize trust, but we can’t achieve truly zero-trust. Not realistically, at least.
@EricBalchunas Probably a socially inept, scorned, former developer for a Bitcoin company.
@R89Capital @Bitkey Bitcoin is money.
@gegelsmr4 @NEEDcreations Sounds about right.
@nic_carter There’s a Latin Vulgate joke in here somewhere, if someone comes up with a good one please pin it to your profile
@yonann Just as insecure as the fat guy from Superbad.
This investigation by @blocks might just single-handedly convince me to use Bitkey. Bravo 👏
1/ During our investigation of the Coldcard drain yesterday, we identified an unusual pattern in the sweeps. That pattern led us to a hypothesis that has since been confirmed: the operator used a paid account at a well-known blockchain-services provider to query the source
@1440000bytes @sesi_the_man I’m tired, boss…
@DrBitcoinMD This is the sign that will need plenty of tapping
@PlatinumCircle_ @BritishHodl People just trying to generate views off of this event. Pretty sad tbh
Nope, and tbh I’m not surprised. On one hand I know how devastating this is to us Bitcoin maxis… this actually goes to show how early we are and how little the average person knows about Bitcoin. Not to mention the fire this just lit under all Bitcoiners and Bitcoin companies to solve these problems for better and easier mass adoption. Time to build 💪
@iamwosp @isabellasg3 It is about education, though. Both are important.
“Build it and they will come” is a myth. The problem being exposed here is that the people who understand the deep technical intricacies of Bitcoin almost NEVER understand the importance of sales, marketing, communication, and educational hand-holding required for mainstream adoption. This is why folks like @stephanlivera @mattkratter and @BTCsessions are so valuable to the Bitcoin community. Imperfect analogy (Bitcoin is not a company) but this is also why tech companies have tons of salespeople, marketing folks, etc. It’s not enough to build good tech. We also have to evangelize.
Before you even COME AT ME, satoshi NEVER moved his bitcoin. Get over yourself. And dont talk down at me for CHOOSING to do what I want with MY OWN money. You can do what you want with yours. If you have a problem with what i post, what i teach, then DO IT. Stop complaining
@overtorment @nvk @coldcard Zero percent chance they get a second chance.
Rough day for Bitcoin. Now is a good time to re-evaluate your custody setup and ensure it’s not vulnerable. Also, be EXTRA cautious of social engineering right now. There will be a second wave of losses if we’re not careful.
@luxangelae The ChatGPT one is a banger, well done
what we know so far about the @COLDCARDwallet issues
1/ Earlier today, our Bitcoin engineering and security teams at Block began investigating reports of non-Bitkey wallets being drained. To proactively protect our customers, we began investigating immediately. Here’s what we found 🧵
