Qubic restarts chain after $1.4M wallet exploit, opens claims until May 2027

  • —Network halted on Oct. 18 and restarted Oct. 19, resuming from tick 85,371,949
  • —Flaw traced to insecure random number generation for wallet seeds in the web wallet
  • —Patch 4.26.4 separates new seeds from the exposed stream but leaves header generation unchanged
  • —Users told to create new wallets and move funds as soon as possible
Why it matters: The incident highlights key-generation risk: funds in old Qubic wallets stay exposed until users migrate.
