Dozens of credible reports of #Coldcard users having funds swept off of wallets, going back years. Many of these people reported the loss, but were blocked, gaslit, ignored etc. There needs to be a Class Action.

The Security Research organisation #WalletScrutiny were unable to reproduce #Coldcard firmware builds in 2023. Rather than spending a few minutes to assist with a reproducible build, NVK mobbed them on Stacker News, attempting to trash their reputation with a very obvious torrent of muck-slinging.

People moving Bitcoin off of a vulnerable Coldcard seed are exposed to a RBF sniping attack during the time between broadcasting the transaction, and the transaction being mined and added to the blockchain. This attack can be mitigated: - Wallets such as Electrum and Sparrow have a setting "Allow RBF / Replace By Fee". This should be set to OFF for extra protection. - Consider paying a slighter higher fee for the transaction; but not so high that the transaction stands out to potential attackers. - Consider submitting the transaction privately to a mining pool. This minimises exposuse of the vulnerable public key you are spending from. The MARA mining pool has a service called Slipstream; using this service will prevent your transaction from being more widely broadcast to mempools... but the tradeoff is that you will have to wait for the next MARA block. Also, your transaction will be visable to MARA pool members immediately. #Coldcard #Coinkite #RBF #RBFATTACK #NVK #COLDCARDSCAM
