Coldcard Bug Finally Exposed: $100M Hack Fallout
How a bug in Coldcard’s code went unnoticed for years, leading to $100 million in hacked funds
The information needed to write this story wasn’t included in the raw content provided. The title suggests a long-running software bug involving Coldcard and an estimated $100 million in compromised funds, but there are no details about the nature of the flaw, who discovered it, which versions were affected, how the losses were attributed, or what evidence supports the figure.
To produce a clean, accurate news article “strictly based on the provided description” and without inventing facts, more source material is required. In particular, the story needs:
- What the bug was (the specific component or code path, and how it failed)
- How it went unnoticed (testing gaps, assumptions, or design choices described in the source)
- How it was exploited (attack prerequisites, threat model, and affected user behavior)
- Scope and timeline (which Coldcard models/firmware versions, and when it was introduced and fixed)
- Evidence for the $100 million figure (on-chain tracing, incident reports, or admissions)
- Response (patches, advisories, mitigations, and any statements from Coinkite/Coldcard)
If you paste the missing raw content (or a link excerpt), I can turn it into a structured, neutral news story that explains what happened, why it matters, and the broader context—without speculation or hype.
