If you use a Coldcard wallet, please be careful but consider taking action immediately.

Coinkite, the maker of the Coldcard hardware wallet, has issued an urgent security advisory and is recommending that anyone who generated a seed using a Coldcard wallet move their Bitcoin to a newly generated wallet immediately. If you rolled a dice more than 50 times to generate the seed, you should be safe.

According to Coinkite, attackers are actively exploiting a seed generation vulnerability, and the company has released a firmware update to prevent new vulnerable seeds from being created.

However, updating your firmware does not protect a seed that was already generated. If your seed was created before installing the new firmware, it must be migrated to a brand-new seed.

If you use a Coldcard wallet, we strongly encourage you to review Coinkite's official guidance and begin the migration process as soon as possible.

As always:
- Never enter your seed phrase into a website or disreputable software wallet (We like Blue Wallet for mobile, and Sparrow wallet for desktop).
- Never share your seed phrase with anyone.
- Abundant Mines will never ask for your recovery words.

This is an evolving situation, and we'll continue to share important updates as more information becomes available.

If you have questions or need help understanding whether your setup may be affected, please don't hesitate to reach out.

It isn't until you're reminded how fragile life is that you realize your most valuable asset isn't bitcoin. It's time.

That realization sits at the heart of this episode of Hosting Bitcoin with @walker

Vulnerable moments are shared in the wake of @CARLA⚡️ s harrowing medical emergency, but rest assured, Walker hasn't lost his wit or charisma. Expect to laugh, reflect, and, in typical Walker fashion, enjoy a few soapbox moments.

Rants include, but are not limited to:

08:00 Going Back to Stoicism
30:00 You Don't Want Bitcoin
31:30 No One Says This on Their Deathbed
39:00 Time Is the Currency of Our Lives
50:00 Nobody Cares About Bitcoin (Bullish!)
52:00 Walker "The Chart Guy" (Courtesy of  @_Checkɱate 🔑⚡🌋☢️🛢️ & @Michael R. Sullivan 's research)
1:09:00 Buddies Peter Schiff & @HODL
1:22:00 Why the Genie Is Out of the Bottle
1:25:00 Nihilism Is a Trap

This is a conversation about remembering why Bitcoin matters in the first place.

Totally agree about time, corporations get our time for free when they advertise... We need to value our time again.

Yes, it sucks, but it made me research a lot. It's important to buy the machines for a very low price. Hashrate/price relation is vital. If they sell you hashrate, I would be suspicious. Why would ...

TIME IS MONEY

For most miners, downtime means lost Bitcoin that can never be recovered.

Not with Abundant Mines.

We mine alongside our clients, and here's why:

With Hashrate Redirect™, if your ASIC goes offline, we temporarily redirect hashrate from our own operational fleet to your mining pool, helping keep your payouts flowing while your machine is repaired.

It's a simple idea rooted in aligned incentives. We don't believe downtime should become your problem alone. By putting our own hashrate behind our clients, we've created a system designed to ensure our clients remain productive even when hardware issues arise.

Two years ago, the world watched Julian Assange walk out of prison and board a plane to freedom.

For many Bitcoiners, truth-seekers, freedom fighters, it wasn't just another headline.

It was emotional. It was personal.

It forced people to reflect on the cost of telling the truth, the power of information, and what happens when individuals challenge the world's most powerful institutions.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, Beau Turner sits down with award-winning filmmaker @Eugene Jarecki to discuss The Six Billion Dollar Man, a groundbreaking documentary, supported by @jack.

This conversation explores the shared values that connect the Bitcoin community and the pursuit of truth.
