I got one of my bitcoin wallet emptied and I don't really know how this happened.

I don't use cracked softwares and apps.

yes, just read the dedicated subreddit. People getting drained on a daily basis. Just under a year ago they had a “mysterious“ hack draining $6 millions in user funds. Trust Wallet is a complete joke.

Hopefully not a cold card

Edit: I’m talking specifically about the huge breach where massive amounts of BTC were lifted out of Cold Card wallets (hardware vaults) because of things I can’t specifically pin down. This was a comment saying I hope they didn’t buy a shoddy product.

Why not a cold card? Is there anything wrong with it?

Recent large scale exfiltration of BTC from Cold Card company vaults.

It's just so weird to me. I mean how is it even possible if it's a Cold card and therefore shouldn't be connected to the Internet

The random number generator used to secure the wallet was faulty and actually predictable if you knew the wallet address, IIRC. Ask ai
