someone reportedly sent the coldcard thief an on-chain offer to launder their stolen bitcoin, for about a dollar. the claim: a dust transaction with an op_return message landed on the main consolidation address holding roughly 562 btc from the exploit, offering to clean the coins, handle kyc, and cash out for a 10% cut. total cost to deliver the pitch, about $1.30. i can't independently verify this specific message beyond what's circulating, worth confirming directly on-chain before treating it as fact. what is confirmed: the stolen funds remain completely unmoved, and the broader theft has grown to roughly $88.6 million across 4,585 wallets in three separate waves, per galaxy research. investigators say the operator's total inactivity is itself telling, either waiting for scrutiny to fade, or genuinely unable to find a way to launder a sum this visible and this watched. this is someone reaching out to the attacker, not any laundering activity by the thief themselves. no proof the offered service is legitimate either.(CyrilXBT)
