Why were Coldcard hackers so stupid?

I don't understand this hack. Most of the funds moved to a handful of wallets. They are now tainted and require mixing and even then they will never be fully unsuspicious. If they had just generated a new wallet for each one they drained and move...

Bitcoin is stronger than ever

After the recent Coldcard hacks I was initially worried what’s going to happen to bitcoin. I was orange pilled ages ago and have been a bitcoiner since. I’m from an abusive alcoholic family and never had any financial support, but my bitcoin pr...
