capture held

Galaxy Research asks victims to continue sending reports to Alex Thorn by direct message, noting that automated analysis can start fastest when the first message includes a correct list of drained bitcoin addresses. Held as a dated operational update on the incident-response intake process, distinct from the earlier Galaxy accounting and wave-attribution posts. The process description is the poster's own.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.

Also held inside a captured conversation

This post is held twice: here, with this project's own note on why it matters, and again as part of the conversation captured at 7 August update: $111M confirmed, 1,719 BTC, 25+ patterns, which is polled for changes. Both copies are the same post; neither is a separate event.
