A sophisticated and novel hacking operation has siphoned off crypto-assets from over 100 compromised addresses, with unknown origins, attack vectors, and victims.
The compromised wallets range in age and activity, and the theft activity matching the patterns began as early as August 2022. The stolen assets are commonly swapped on-chain, with the final destination always being Bitcoin, which is then taken to Wasabi Wallet and other coin-join mixers to try to obfuscate the flow of funds.
Blockmage has offered to serve as the legal umbrella for this decentralized network of global volunteers and will use their resources to be the primary point for information collection and dissemination. Victims can fill out the secure victim intake form for more information.
To reduce the risk of exposure, generate a new seed (recovery) phrase, private signing key, and public key, move your assets to the address of your new wallet from the old, and ensure you double-check the address you are sending to in its entirety.
