Luke Dashjr, one of the original core creators of Bitcoin, claimed that a hack that happened right before the new year cost him “essentially” all of his BTC. The developer claimed in a tweet on 1 January that the suspected hackers had acquired access to his PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) key. This popular security technique […]

In his most recent Twitter thread, Dashjr stated that he was just made aware of the current hack after receiving letters from Coinbase and Kraken regarding failed login attempts.

“Sorry to see you lose so much. Informed our security team to monitor. If it comes our way, we will freeze it. Please let us know if we can help with anything else.
