Mt. Gox, Ronin, DMM Bitcoin, Bybit, and now Bitget.
Another reminder that threats to crypto never stop evolving.
The next threat is quantum computing.
Wallets from Satoshiโs era have had their public keys exposed onchain for more than 15 years.
Together, they are associated with approximately 1,096,361 BTC, making them one of the largest targets in crypto history.
This is where MemeBitcoin is focused.
We are bringing the community together to reach Satoshiโs wallet before quantum computers do.
We are not waiting for the threat to arrive.
We are moving first.
Earlier 7 hours ago, I hosted a live stream with everyone that lasted over three hours. Here's a summary of the points I covered in the live:
โ Bitget security incident update โ 1 hours in. We're sharing specific facts, not just reassurances.
โก Affected assets include ETH, XRP (the largest single chain loss), BNB, AVAX, USDT, USDC, and several other altcoin. The incident spans multiple chains: Ethereum, XRP Ledger, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Optimism, BSC, and Base. Cold wallets across all chains have been confirmed secure and unaffected.
โข We have contacted foundations across all affected chains. A few have already frozen the hacker's wallet addresses. We are actively pursuing every available avenue and will provide updates as the situation develops.
โฃ Based on IP behavioral patterns and on-chain signatures, this attack is consistent with techniques used by DPRK-linked hacker groups. We have notified relevant authorities and are cooperating fully with them globally.
โค Bitget Wallet operates on completely separate infrastructure from Bitget Exchange. It was not affected by this incident. Bitget Wallet's funds are fully safe.
โฅ To be transparent about our financial position: beyond the $464M+ Protection Fund โ all held in publicly verifiable wallets โ Bitget holds over $1 billion in its own assets. User funds are covered on a 1:1 basis.
โฆ Withdrawal restoration timeline: we are targeting a full resumption as soon as possible. We will announce the exact window as soon as it is confirmed. We will not commit to a timeline we cannot deliver.
