Hackers managed to steal approximately 1,367 Bitcoins, valued at roughly $89 million (₹848 crore), from 4,585 offline cryptocurrency wallets by taking advantage of a vulnerability in Coldcard hardware devices. Rather than utilizing a secure hardware-based random number generator, these wallets depended on a less secure software-based process. This flaw rendered the security keys predictable, which enabled the attackers to successfully replicate the private keys.
