Bitcoin onchain activity surges to yearly high as Coldcard attack unfolds

Bitcoin onchain activity has reached its highest level of 2026 as researchers have linked the surge to the ongoing Coldcard wallet exploit, warning that similar spikes have historically coincided with local market turning points.　　K33 Research said nearly 890,000 BTC has moved onchain over the past seven days, the highest seven-day active supply recorded this year, even as Bitcoin has continued trading within one of its tightest price ranges in recent years.　　The research note arrives as investigators continue expanding the scope of the Coldcard hardware wallet breach. Galaxy Research said on Tuesday that at least 15 different attackers have now exploited the vulnerability, while its latest confirmed estimate stands at 1,596 BTC stolen from roughly 7,300 addresses across three verified attack waves. The firm added that losses could reach around 2,055 BTC, or about $130 million, if a fourth suspected wave is confirmed through additional victim reports.　　Although earlier blockchain observations suggested larger losses, Galaxy said it refined its estimates after separating confirmed victim reports from suspected onchain activity. The research team also said about 90% of the stolen Bitcoin has not moved since the attacks, giving investigators additional time to monitor the funds while coordinating with cryptocurrency exchanges, blockchain security firms

Bitcoin, broader market fail to keep pace as global equities hit record highs

SummaryBitcoin is trading little changed even as global stock indexes hit record highs on AI optimism and easing energy concerns, underscoring crypto-specific weakness.Derivatives data show subdued activity in bitcoin and ether but aggressive positioning in select altcoins.A sharp $4 billion, 60-day contraction in Tethers market value signals capital leaving crypto and may indicate late-stage selling.

Bitcoin ETFs log inflows as cold wallet hack reignites custody debate

US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are attracting fresh capital as a high-profile cryptocurrency custody incident puts renewed focus on digital asset security.　　Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $211.5 million in net inflows on Tuesday, adding to Mondays $170 million, according to data from SoSoValue.　　The inflows came as the ongoing Coldcard hack drew attention from analysts, with Galaxy Research estimating that the attack may have affected as many as 7,300 addresses and resulted in about $130 million in suspected Bitcoin (BTC) losses from users of the hardware wallet.　　The developments have renewed a long-running debate in crypto over whether institutional custody solutions offered through regulated financial products could become more attractive as investors weigh the risks and responsibilities of self-custody.　　Galaxy ETF returns to inflows as Bitcoin funds rebound　　BlackRock‘s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the ETF recovery, recording $111 million in inflows on Monday and $170 million on Tuesday, according to Farside Investors data.

Taiwan moves to enforce Travel Rule across domestic crypto platforms

Taiwan has proposed mandatory customer information sharing for all domestic crypto platform transfers, with new Travel Rule requirements scheduled to begin in October.　　According to Taiwans Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC), draft amendments released on Tuesday would require virtual asset service providers (VASPs) to exchange customer information for every transfer between domestic crypto platforms, regardless of transaction value.　　The regulator said transfers above 30,000 New Taiwan dollars (about $930) would face additional identification requirements before they could be processed.　　The proposal would also require receiving VASPs to verify that beneficiary details provided by the sending platform match the information held in their own records. The FSC said the amendments will enter a 30-day public consultation before any final rules are adopted.　　Taiwan expands Travel Rule requirements　　Under the proposed framework, platforms handling transfers above the NT$30,000 threshold would need to transmit more detailed customer information.　　For individual senders, the FSC said platforms must provide the customers date of birth and residential address alongside existing transfer information. Corporate senders would instead need to disclose their official identification number and registered business address.　　Receiving platforms would no longer be limited to accepting transmitted information. The proposal requires them to compare beneficiary information received from the originating VASP against their own

Coldcard hack sparks a self-custody security overhaul: Cory Klippsten

SummarySwan CEO Cory Klippsten said the Coldcard attack prompted bitcoin holders to reexamine their custody decisions.He said he mobilized his team to help affected holders move their coins to safety, including people who were not Swan clients.Rather than abandoning self-custody, affected users are migrating toward vaults that prevent any single compromised device from putting funds at risk.　　Cory Klippsten was at a wedding in Paris when the messages started coming in.　　“It was a brutal weekend for so many who lost bitcoin,” the CEO of Swan said in an interview. “I was sending messages at 4 a.m. to help someone on Pacific Time get their coins to safety.”　　That was last Thursday, when attackers began draining bitcoin from thousands of Coldcard hardware wallets, exploiting a firmware flaw that had sat undetected for five years.　　A defect in a March 2021 firmware update for the Coinkite-made wallet left users with private keys that were less secure than they should have been. By the time three waves of attack had rolled through, almost 1,600 BTC valued at over $100 million had been swept from around 7,300 addresses, according to Galaxy Research.　　Swan, a U.S.-based platform that helps individuals buy, hold and self-custody bitcoin, paused withdrawals for at-risk

Taiwan plans Travel Rule for domestic crypto transfers from October

Taiwans financial regulator plans to require crypto platforms to transmit customer information on all domestic platform-to-platform transfers starting in October.　　On Tuesday, the Financial Supervisory Commission said its proposed amendments would apply the Financial Action Task Forces (FATF) Travel Rule regardless of value.　　Transfers exceeding 30,000 New Taiwan dollars (about $930) would trigger additional data requirements, including an individual sender‘s date of birth and residential address, or a corporate sender’s official identification number and registered address. Receiving VASPs would also be required to compare beneficiary information supplied by the originating platform with their own records.　　The FSC plans to extend the framework to transfers between domestic and overseas VASPs by the end of 2027.　　Taiwan introduced Travel Rule provisions in its AML regulations in 2021 but did not implement them, citing differences among countries regulatory requirements, incompatible information-transmission standards and difficulties connecting cross-border systems. The FSC said the proposed amendments would soon enter a 30-day public consultation.　　The proposal comes as Travel Rule adoption advances globally but remains uneven. In July, the FATF said 83% of surveyed jurisdictions had enacted Travel Rule legislation, up from 73% in 2025, while warning that significant implementation and enforcement gaps remained.
