- —11.75M XRP worth $18.68M stolen from 6,678 wallets between Sept. 15 and 20
- —4,208 wallets drained via standard payments, 2,470 via AccountDelete closures
- —5.67M XRP moved through THORChain; 535,666 XRP sent to Binance
- —D'CENT urges migration to a new seed phrase, including for hardware wallet holders
Why it matters: A private key leak in a hardware wallet app undermines trust in self-custody tools, though some funds may still be frozen on Binance.
