BEARISH BTC ⇄ CROSS-ASSET Mt. Gox Creditor Sell Pressure BEARISH BTC ≈ RELATED Ethereum transactions leave traceable footprints that can be followed through mixers, chain-hopping, and exchange cooperation, making stolen ETH recoverable through sophisticated blockchain analytics. NEUTRAL ETH ⇄ CROSS-ASSET A Coldcard firmware vulnerability resulted in widespread Bitcoin losses across a larger set of wallets than initially estimated, with 1,082.65 BTC compromised across 1,196 addresses.
