    It Wasn't Just ColdCard: AI Is Finding Bugs in Every Bitcoin Wallet

    This isn't just a ColdCard story anymore. In this emergency episode, Portland Hodl, Bitcoin Core contributor and creator of Slipstream, reveals that an open-source AI model with none of the safety guardrails of US frontier models is now tearing through the entire hardware wallet industry's code. ColdCard was first. Then BTCPay Server. Then Nunchuk. As of this morning, Trezor too. We get into what to actually do right now if you're on an affected device (priority order matters: some setups need to move funds immediately, others have more time), how Slipstream lets you migrate funds through a private mempool without exposing your multisig's public keys to attackers, and why Portland won't rule out that the ColdCard bug was something more than an accident. We also talk about what this means as a preview for a real quantum computing threat down the road. If you're affected and don't know what to do, Bitcoin Well's support team is taking calls to help you move your funds safely.

    Bitcoin Lost $116M. Then $853M Ran to ETFs Instead

    $116 million vanished from "self-custody" wallets after a ColdCard firmware bug quietly broke wallet randomness for five years. The response from the market was almost nobody expected: $853 million flowed into Bitcoin ETFs the same week — the most custodial option available. Eric Yakes (author of The 7th Property) and Trey Sellers (Fire BTC) join us for a two-part conversation: what actually happened with ColdCard and what to do about it, why the ETF flows might be Bitcoin's most interesting contradiction right now, the BIP-110 fork that failed in two blocks and what it proves about Bitcoin governance, the CLARITY Act's September 15 Senate vote, and Eric's case for Bitcoin's "7th property" — absolute scarcity.

    Back the Fork Off - The BIP110 Post Mortem

    The BIP-110 activation weekend came and went with almost zero miner support. Now the Bitcoin Knots camp is talking about a proof-of-work change to fire the miners entirely. Q hosts the post-mortem Spaces with Hodl, Otto, Wicked, and guests to break down what actually happened, what a POW change would mean in practice, why the 51% attack risk on the new chain is enormous under SHA-256, and whether the Bitcoin Knots fork can hold the name "Bitcoin." Coldcard hack fallout also covered — Bitcoin Well is offering complimentary help to anyone still trying to sort their custody situation.

    The BIP110 Bitcoin Debate | Gary Cardone vs. BIP110

    Q wanted a place where Bitcoiners could disagree without it turning toxic. This four-hour Spaces — featuring Hodlonaut, Knut Svanholm, and a rotating cast of guests — is what that actually looks like. The BIP-110 debate, ordinals as spam vs. legitimate fee market activity, whether this moment is worse or better than the Block Size Wars, Craig Wright threatening to sue Bitcoin Magazine, the 2032 halving and miner fee revenue, Mimblewimble extension blocks for privacy, and why creating enemies when you could have allies is the wrong strategy for Bitcoin. A civil conversation that the space badly needed. Bitcoin Well is a non-custodial bitcoin platform that helps people buy, sell and use bitcoin in Canada and the United States.

    $130 Million Just Vanished From 'Safe' Bitcoin Wallets | Pete Rizzo

    $130 million. That's how much Bitcoin has vanished from "self-custody" wallets since a firmware flaw in Coldcard hardware wallets was disclosed — one of the largest security failures in Bitcoin's history, and it happened to people who did everything right by taking their coins off exchanges. This week we're joined by Pete Rizzo — Bitcoin historian, former Bitcoin Magazine and CoinDesk editor — to put this moment in context. We trace the history of self-custody, why collaborative custody exists and who it's actually for, and how this hack stacks up against Mt. Gox, Celsius, and FTX. The uncomfortable truth: none of those custodial disasters made custodial the answer, and this one doesn't either. Pete makes the case for why self-custody is still bitcoin's north star — and what actually needs to change.

    Korea Crashed 30% Overnight. Japan Is Next. The Fed Is Holding. And We're Fine.

    Bitcoin is at $64K USD. The Korean stock market just dropped 30% in a day. Asian markets are flashing red from Japan to Taiwan. The Fed is about to hike rates. And Galaxy Research dropped a $5M bet that quantum computers will break Bitcoin before the ecosystem can respond. Q, Riley, and Zach cover all of it: why every global stock market is a cousin of the US market, what the S&P priced in gold actually shows since 2000, the Galaxy quantum bet and whether it's signal or noise, the Clarity Act timeline, and a bet involving the world's hottest chip that Riley is going to regret.

    500 Cold Wallets Drained Overnight: What you can do right now!

    This is not a drill. On July 30th, 594 Bitcoin — roughly $38 million — was swept from 500 wallets in about 25 minutes. Nobody was phished. Nobody's device was touched. A firmware bug in Coldcard meant the random numbers generating people's seed phrases weren't actually random. A predictable seed is a math problem an attacker can solve. Zach — who owns a Mark III — breaks format to give you the immediate action steps first, then walks through the full timeline, the entropy failure explained simply, what a BIP39 passphrase would have protected, why multisig across multiple vendors is the structural fix, and the habits that protect you regardless of who makes your wallet. Email z.addair@bitcoinwell.com or help@bitcoinwell.com if you need help walking through your own migration.

    Reads: Why Saylor Selling Was the Most Bullish Thing to Happen to Bitcoin

    Bitcoin clawed back to $64K. BlackRock added $600 million. ETF inflows ran 5 straight days. The loud screen was euphoric. The quiet screen — fear and greed index locked at 28, gold near all-time highs, Treasury yields ripping — was telling a completely different story. Zach reads his original piece on the gap between price and belief, why the crowd doesn't trust this rebound, why an ETF share is a claim on a claim, and why the only version of Bitcoin that delivers on its promise is the one whose private keys exist only in your physical possession.
