With our new proposal, the SEC is taking the most historic step yet to modernize federal securities regulations for crypto assets.

As the Crypto Capital of the World, the U.S. must and will lead. Regulation Crypto Assets will ensure that we do. 🇺🇸

$BNB

2018 top → 2021 top, ~1210 days
2021 top → 2025 top, ~1610 days

the timing varies, but the structure doesn't

accumulation → expansion → euphoria → reset, every cycle, same sequence

markets don't repeat perfectly, but they leave patterns

We have some difficult news to share. Unfortunately, one of our shipping providers has experienced a data breach that exposed sensitive order data. This affects new customers in the US, UK, Sweden, Colombia, Brazil, Italy, and Portugal who received an order within the 90 days prior to August 8th, 2026.

The data exposed:

- Full names
- Shipping addresses
- Phone numbers
- Email addresses

The incident affects 11,742 customers with full exposure (name, email, phone number, shipping address) and 1,947 customers with partial exposure (name, city, email). The breach is limited due to Trezor’s strict 90-day data storage policy (we were also able to negotiate the same terms with fulfillment partners, who follow the same policy).

All affected customers have been contacted separately by email.

Our systems and devices remain secure, but affected customers could experience an increase in phishing attempts.

NEVER enter your wallet backup on a website or share it with anyone, and only check for updates on official Trezor channels.

We are deeply sorry to the community and those affected.

We are investigating this situation and will post updates on our blog:

Very interesting. Looks like strong possibility that `switck`, the account writing the buggy libngu library that caused all this, was actually Peter Gray (@DocHex), CTO of Coinkite.

This is the same guy that shrugged off my report of the possibility of the defect in May 2025.

🚨 A 3rd wave in what we suspect are hacks of Coldcard-generated addresses has been identified in which 207.7294 BTC has been drained.

Our estimated observed size of the Coldcard hack is now 1,367.05 BTC (~$88.6m) across 4,585 addresses.

[Jonathan Goodman 🇨🇦 @itscoachgoodman]

$1.6 million dollars in Bitcoin was drained from my account on July 29th in the Cold Card wallet hack.

My Bitcoin was in cold storage. My keys were on a ColdCard device kept in a safety deposit box that had never been connected to the internet.

This part's nerdy, but here's what happened:

Hackers discovered a vulnerability in the part of the hardware wallet code used to create seed phrases.

This allowed them to use AI to brute force guessing seed phrases.

I was at our cottage and heard about the hack today.

"No way this affects me." I thought.

I logged into Wasabi––software that lets me view my bitcoin wallets online.

Right away I saw lines of red transaction–withdrawals–and I knew.

From 9:36pm - 9:43pm on July 29th, every wallet I had had been emptied.

18.25245043 btc gone. That's just over $1.6 million dollars CAD.

Perhaps the hardest part about this is that I did everything right.

I never shared my seed phrase with anybody. My devices never touched the internet. Everything was kept in multiple safes and safety deposit boxes.

None of it mattered. All because the hardware that created the seed phrase originally had one line in their code from 2021 that had a vulnerability.

I'm filing a police report and a report with the Ontario Securities Commission. But I don't expect to recoup anything.

A part of me is trying to make sense of what just happened. Or try to figure out a lesson in it. I'm struggling. $1.6 million is a staggering amount of money to have stolen.

I guess all that I can think about right now is that I'm so damn happy that I'm an entrepreneur and that my earning potential is under my control. Mark my damn words. I'll recover.

@isabellasg3 Interesting enough @cryptocom uses Ledger Nano S to protect their assets

[Ledger @Ledger]

Ledger is not affected by the recently published Coldcard Mk3 advisory.

Ledger devices use a certified True Random Number Generator (TRNG) built directly into our Secure Element chip, generating full 256 bits of entropy for every 24-word Secret Recovery Phrase. Please refer to this article for more information: https://t.co/wYlVHAeiVX

Coinkite has published a security advisory regarding certain Coldcard Mk3 firmware versions - you can read their notice here: https://t.co/uHkzcCWoBW

1/ Earlier today, our Bitcoin engineering and security teams at Block began investigating reports of non-Bitkey wallets being drained. To proactively protect our customers, we began investigating immediately. Here’s what we found 🧵

[Ryan VanGrack @RVanGrack]

We got our answer. @BlackRock is officially on board.

The world's largest asset manager joins @CharlesSchwab, @Fidelity, @GoldmanSachs in backing Clarity.

Your turn, Congress.
