## Resource

A crypto hacker linked to Coldcard wallet thefts is desperately trying to swap stolen Bitcoin for Ether via THORChain—only to keep getting transactions refunded. Undeterred, they’re retrying again and again, revealing a persistent, opportunistic threat. Onchain sleuths have traced the funds to a new Ethereum address and alerted law enforcement and exchanges. This escalating cat-and-mouse game underscores ongoing vulnerabilities—and the community’s watchful eye as the attacker’s next move remains uncertain.
