Crypto Banter reports, citing Lookonchain, that the wallet tied to the COLDCARD exploit has transferred 30 BTC, about US$1.94 million, to a new address, and notes that most of the stolen funds had sat idle until this move. It restates the background figures as an estimated 2,055 BTC, about US$130 million, taken from more than 7,700 addresses after a firmware vulnerability let seed phrases be cracked. Held because movement of the consolidated proceeds is the specific event the archive's chain monitors exist to catch: glxyresearch-attacker-holdings records the endpoint set as fully unspent on 1 August, and glxy-law-enforcement-handoff puts 90 percent of the coins unmoved on 3 August, so a reported spend on 7 August is a change in the funds picture rather than routine commentary. This is a secondary relay by a commercial media account: the underlying Lookonchain observation is not held here, the transaction is not identified in the post, and the 2,055 BTC figure is Galaxy's estimate, which the loss accounting at /record/funds/ presents alongside the others rather than adopting. None of it is verified here.
