2026-08-06 18:48
Tests reveal attackers only drain Coldcard Mk3 wallets lacking extra entropy, leaving secured accounts untouched. Users urged to migrate funds immediately despite current low risk.
Woofun AI data shows that recent honeypot tests regarding Coldcard Mk3 RNG vulnerabilities indicate attackers prioritize the most susceptible wallets. Researcher @ColeTU funded five affected wallets with varying security levels; after 14 hours, only the wallet using solely a vulnerable seed phrase was drained. Dashboard data from @jamesob confirms that among 17 honeypots, only two without additional entropy were emptied, while those using multisig or random account numbers remain secure.

Impact Assessment · Quick Read
The findings suggest that exploiters are currently opportunistic, targeting low-hanging fruit rather than attempting complex brute-force attacks on hardened wallets. While this indicates a lower immediate threat to users employing standard security practices, it underscores the critical importance of adding entropy layers. Affected users should still migrate funds to mitigate any potential future escalation in attacker sophistication.
