Slow Mist Cosine: CoinStats wallet private key leaked on a large scale and in limited proportion, pending official disclosure of details
Cosine Yu X, founder of SlowMist, wrote on the CoinStats attack: "This app has been used a long time ago to facilitate the detection of the assets of the target wallet. There are many such applications, so I will not name them. Some have their own wallet function (you have to touch this minefield), allowing users to create wallets and use them later. I am curious about how CoinStats Wallet is in principle self-hosted by users, and how private keys are leaked on a large scale. The official statement is 1.3% of them. This kind of scale leakage, and the proportion is limited, the reason can be speculated, but I will not talk about it here. Wait for the official disclosure details."
Earlier today, it was reported that the CoinStats attack affected 1,590 crypto wallets, reminding users to transfer funds immediately.
