🔐 Coldcard Losses Near $89M as Bitcoin Slides Under $63K

Bitcoin fell below $63,000 despite easing macro pressures, as fresh Coldcard-linked wallet sweeps weighed on sentiment alongside ETF outflows and policy delays.

Oil and Treasury yields declined following U.S.-Iran talks, reducing near-term inflation fears — yet neither Bitcoin nor Ether caught a bid. Observed losses tied to Coldcard-linked sweeps reached nearly $89 million, adding a security overhang to already cautious market conditions.

💵 Stablecoin Supply Drops $14.6B — Largest Fall Since Terra

The stablecoin market has shed roughly $14.56 billion in its largest contraction since the Terra collapse, with an additional $2.767 billion lost over the past seven days, according to DeFiLlama data.

The decline followed new federal rules that eliminated interest payments on digital dollars, flushing out yield-driven capital as investors repositioned away from non-yielding stablecoin holdings.

The Terra implosion in 2022 remains the benchmark for stablecoin market stress. A drop of this scale signals that regulatory changes to yield mechanics can trigger significant capital outflows from the sector.

🔐 Fake Trezor Support Scam Drains $282M in Bitcoin and Litecoin

A Bitcoin and Litecoin holder lost $282 million on January 10, 2026, after handing their 12-word seed phrase to a scammer posing as Trezor customer support.

No encryption was broken. The seed phrase itself is the wallet — anyone who holds it controls the funds. The attacker used social engineering rather than any technical exploit to gain access.

The incident is a reminder that legitimate hardware wallet makers never ask for recovery phrases under any circumstances.
