White Hats Secure 40% of Bitcoin Moved in Coldcard Exploit’s Second Wave

White-hat security responders secured about 40% of the Bitcoin moved during the second wave of the Coldcard exploit, according to Cointelegraph. The broader movement involved 52 Bitcoin. The recovered funds were transferred to a Wyoming trust established for victims of the exploit. The report highlights an effort to move part of the affected Bitcoin away from the exploit’s operators and place it under a structure intended to support victims. The development concerns Bitcoin directly, with the secured amount representing roughly two-fifths of the Bitcoin involved in this phase. Cointelegraph published the report on September 22, 2026.
