ChainCatcher news, according to Coindesk, multiple Bitcoin wallets from the "Satoshi era" have suddenly become active after 15 years of dormancy. On-chain data shows that over 250 Bitcoins (approximately $16 million) were transferred in the morning European time, completed in five transactions, with each transfer consisting of 50 Bitcoins to a new wallet. These Bitcoins originated from block rewards in early 2009 and had never been active before.It is currently unclear whether these wallets belong to the same person or entity, and as of the time of publication, the new wallet has not transferred funds to an exchange. Notably, similar large-scale transfers of "Satoshi era" Bitcoins also occurred last July and December, with over 1,000 Bitcoins transferred to exchanges in December, which may have been sold.

ChainCatcher news, according to CNBC, the number of Bitcoin ATMs is rapidly increasing in the United States, and some experts believe this has led to a growing threat of cybercrime. Bitcoin ATMs are similar to traditional cash ATMs: they require a PIN code and charge a withdrawal fee, just like other ATMs.However, unlike cash ATMs, the high value of cryptocurrencies makes them a primary target for hackers. Therefore, while a cash ATM hidden between snacks and energy drinks at a gas station may not attract much attention, Bitcoin ATMs are subject to more scrutiny from criminals."Clearly, these machines are particularly vulnerable to physical and cyber threats, making them prime targets for hackers and thieves," said Timothy Bates, a cybersecurity professor at the University of Michigan's School of Information.According to Frei, data shows that nearly 74% of ATMs worldwide are managed by 10 operators.The largest Bitcoin ATM operator, Bitcoin Depot, operates over 8,000 ATMs. Its CEO, Brandon Mintz, stated that the company's machines are designed to prevent hacking attempts. However, he also questioned the claim that Bitcoin ATMs are a primary target for hackers."Because the hardware and Bitcoin wallet environment are separate, Bitcoin ATMs are generally not a high-priority target for cybercriminals," Mintz said. He also noted that Bitcoin Depot does not store any Bitcoin locally on its ATMs and that the company has multiple layers of verification and approval processes to prevent unauthorized access to Bitcoin Depot's wallets.Additionally, Mintz pointed out that most Bitcoin ATMs (including Bitcoin Depot's ATMs) only accept cash, which eliminates the possibility of criminals using card readers on traditional cash ATMs. However, he also cautioned users to be vigilant against scams, as some basic protocols that protect consumers from traditional financial fraud also apply to the world of cryptocurrencies.

ChainCatcher news, according to Wired, two researchers successfully cracked the password of a digital wallet that had been forgotten for 10 years and recovered approximately $3 million worth of Bitcoin.Due to a flaw in the version of RoboForm password manager from ten years ago, along with a bit of luck, the researchers were able to uncover the password for a cryptocurrency wallet containing a fortune. Michael, who lives in Europe and requested anonymity, had stored the cryptocurrency in a password-protected digital wallet. He used the RoboForm password manager to generate the password and stored it in a file encrypted with TrueCrypt. Later, the file became corrupted, and Michael was unable to access the 20-character password he generated to protect 43.6 Bitcoin (worth about 4,000 euros or $5,300 in 2013).

According to ChainCatcher, The Block reported that two researchers helped a man recover the lost password to his cryptocurrency wallet, which contained 43.6 bitcoins, currently worth about $2.96 million.The man, referred to as Michael, created a cryptocurrency wallet sometime in 2013 and then used RoboForm to create his unique password. Due to security concerns, Michael stored the password in an encrypted file, choosing not to store it in RoboForm. However, when the encrypted file became corrupted, Michael no longer had access to the 20-character password needed to access the 43.6 bitcoins in the wallet.Although Michael does not fully remember when he created his password, the researchers noted that he transferred bitcoins into his wallet on April 13, 2013. They used specific time parameters to test many passwords until they found the correct one, which was created on May 15, 2013.Michael transferred a portion of the bitcoins to the two researchers. He also sold another small portion, so he now holds 30 bitcoins, worth about $2 million. Michael stated that he intends to hold his bitcoins until the value of a single token reaches $100,000.He added that he is glad he was unable to access the wallet, as holding the tokens for a long time has increased their value over time.
