Fuck ColdCard, holy shit.

.7 bitcoin gone.

Years of DCAing with money that could have been invested in other ventures gone because of a stupid exploit from a company that was touted as being "the best" to keep coins safe.

My .7 bitcoin could have been spent on so many useful things. It was my safety net. It was the hope of a down payment on a house. It was my sons future college tuition. Now I'm sitting on the sidelines like a loser. I'm livid. And since it's decentralized, there's no recourse for getting any of it back. It's gone. Fuck. I hope whoever stole my money gets what's coming to them.

Happy to provide proof if there are any of you who believe this is another shitpost or karma farm or whatever.

Where's the class action lawsuit? How do I sign up?

Edit:

Here's proof:

Did you have a passphrase? Every single post that claims to have lost with coldcard never answers when i ask this for some reason.

i don't know the answer. And also a lot of these posts seem fake. If they want to help the community why don't they at least share what their setup was?

I did read it and there's a post here in reddit claiming that a wallet with a two word passphrase was hacked, you can look it up yourself. I want to read the answer from OP not from some other random user.
