Wicked announces that he is running a language model over publicly reported COLDCARD losses that predate the disclosure, to estimate how many were seed collisions rather than ordinary theft, and posts four screenshots of the prompt itself rather than a conclusion. The prompt sets firmware inclusion criteria at roughly 2^50 to 2^63 for Mk3 and Mk4 entropy, tells the model to exclude losses attributable to phishing, supply-chain compromise, malware or physical access, and asks for a per-report classification, a probability comparison against accidental collision, a sensitivity analysis and a confidence score. It is held for the method: the archive already carries contested claims that owners were drained before July 2026, in btctherapist-prior-drain-report and reddit-ledgerwallet-drain-comment, and this is a dated attempt to sort them systematically with the criteria published in advance. No result is contained in this post, and the estimates the prompt asks for would be the model's output, not a finding verified here.
This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication. Last checked .
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 , which is polled for changes. Both copies are the same post; neither is a separate event.
Snapshot and diff bodies for this chain monitor are held in the local evidence archive but withheld from the public site because they can contain the addresses of people who published nothing themselves. Capture times and reviewed change summaries remain available below.

Complete captures are held offline rather than mirrored here, so this page shows diffs and excerpts. If a quotation is ever disputed, the full copy can be produced. Ask.
