    Tampered Ledger wallets from an Asian reseller leak seed phrases; on-chain estimate puts losses near $102M

    Ledger hardware wallets sold by CryptoBilis, a Southeast Asian reseller, had a hidden implant added after manufacture that read the 24-word recovery phrase during setup and sent it out over an LTE eSIM. Coordinated drains began on 9 October 2026 across TRON, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Solana and Bitcoin. Bitquery's on-chain estimate is about $102M from 324 wallets, and investigator Specter put it above $86M. Ledger has not confirmed a figure. Anyone who set up a Ledger bought from a third-party seller in the affected markets should move funds to a new seed made on a device bought direct.

    D'CENT app-wallet users drained of over $18M as compromised seeds hit XRP, Ethereum, Bitcoin and Tron

    From 15 to 20 September 2026 thieves emptied at least 6,678 wallets created in the D'CENT mobile app in six waves, taking about 11.7M XRP, and kept draining after 21 September for a total above 12.4M XRP (over $18M per Protos). D'CENT's own disclosure also named Bitcoin, Tron and Ethereum, and the stolen XRP was moved to Ethereum through THORChain. The cause is compromised recovery phrases for wallets made in the app; how they leaked has not been explained. D'CENT says app-created wallets are vulnerable and tells users to make a new recovery phrase and move everything.

    19 Chrome and Edge extensions hid a wallet drainer that hijacked Connect Wallet and Swap buttons

    Socket found 19 Chrome and Edge extensions, from crypto price trackers and explorers to general tools like 'Enable Right Click & Copy' (70,000+ Chrome users), that loaded a modular malware framework. It drained EVM, Solana and Tron wallets by hijacking 'Connect Wallet' and 'Swap' buttons, swapped Ledger and Trezor sites for seed-phishing pages and stole exchange sessions; five extensions were bought from their original developers and turned malicious through updates. Socket thinks the campaign may date back to early 2024. Google removed the Chrome listings, but when BleepingComputer reported it on 30 August 2026 the Edge version of one was still available.

    Crypto payments firm Triple-A loses $9.7M+ from hot wallets on Ethereum, Solana, TRON and TON

    On Jul 24, 2026, on-chain analyst Specter flagged suspicious outflows from hot wallets of the crypto payment processor Triple-A, and PeckShield later estimated losses above $9.7 million. crypto.news lists Ethereum, Solana, TRON and TON as affected, with some reports adding Polygon and Arbitrum. The proceeds were gathered in an Ethereum address holding about 5,227 ETH. The cause had not been disclosed, and no evidence tied the breach to Triple-A's custody provider Fireblocks. Merchants and customers should rely only on Triple-A's official channels for updates.

    Crypto casino Duelbits loses about $7M from hot wallets in suspected private-key compromise

    On 24 September 2026 crypto casino Duelbits had hot wallets drained across Ethereum, BNB Chain, Tron, Bitcoin and Solana. Co-founder Joe called it a hack of about $7M; other estimates run from about $4.2M (Scam Sniffer, early) to about $6M (CertiK), and Rekt traced about $6.07M. Scam Sniffer and SlowMist point to a leaked private key, but Duelbits has not published a root cause. The site reopened on 27 September and said user funds were safe.

    Microsoft: USB-spread 'CryptoBandits' clipper swaps wallet addresses and steals seed phrases over Tor

    Microsoft reported a Windows crypto clipper, detected as Trojan:Win32/CryptoBandits, active since February 2026 and spreading through malicious shortcut (.lnk) files on USB drives. It checks the clipboard every half second, replaces copied Bitcoin, Tron and Monero addresses with lookalikes that share the first characters, grabs copied 12/24-word seed phrases and private keys, takes screenshots, and talks to its servers over Tor. Always check the whole address on your wallet or device screen before sending. No loss total was published.

    'Ill Bloom' weak-randomness flaw lets attackers sweep about $5M from software-wallet seeds, Solana included

    Coinspect disclosed in July 2026 that some wallet software generated seed phrases with a weak random number generator, letting attackers guess the keys. On May 27, 2026, an attacker drained about $3.1 million from 431 of 2,114 vulnerable wallets in one address set, and about $2 million more moved later. That makes roughly $5 million known so far, across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Rootstock, Tron and Solana. Hardware-wallet seeds appear unaffected. Less widely used mobile software wallets are the likeliest source, with affected wallets dating back to 2018. Check older addresses with Coinspect's checker and move funds to a freshly generated wallet.

    Kaspersky finds 26 'FakeWallet' apps on Apple's App Store stealing wallet recovery phrases

    Kaspersky found 26 decoy apps on Apple's App Store (games, calculators, to-do lists) that opened a fake App Store page and pushed users to sideload trojanized versions of MetaMask, Ledger, Trust Wallet, Coinbase, TokenPocket, imToken and Bitpie. The trojanized hot wallets captured recovery phrases during wallet creation or restore, and the Ledger lure asked for the phrase directly. The campaign ran since at least fall 2025, mostly against users in China, and is attributed with moderate confidence to the SparkKitty actors; Kaspersky reported all apps to Apple. No loss total was published.

    Fake Ledger Live app on Apple's Mac App Store stole about $9.5M in seed-phrase thefts

    A fake Ledger Live app for macOS, published on Apple's App Store under the name 'Leva Heal Limited', asked users for their recovery phrase and drained about $9.5M from roughly 50 victims between 8 and 11 April 2026. Apple removed the app and terminated the developer account; KuCoin froze accounts used to launder part of the funds. Ledger's desktop app is only distributed from Ledger's own website, and no Ledger software ever asks for your recovery phrase.
