in5points

Galaxy Digital's Alex Thorn warns of a suspected fourth wave of attacks on vulnerable Coldcard Bitcoin wallets.
The latest attacks involve 709 potential victim addresses and nearly 449 Bitcoin swept from hundreds of addresses.
Attackers moved funds to separate destination wallets, prompting Thorn to urge affected users to transfer their holdings immediately with higher transaction fees.
This follows last week's $38 million Coldcard exploit linked to flawed wallet key generation.
