It’s almost 2027 and there’s still zero countries with bitcoin as legal tender

⚠️ QUBIC HALTS NETWORK AFTER ATTACKER DRAINS 1,404 WALLETS VIA WEAK SEEDS Qubic confirmed on Oct 18, 2026 that an attacker drained 1,404 wallets, about 2.94 trillion QU in total, between 23:42 UTC on Oct 17 and 01:26 UTC on Oct 18. What Qubic says: • Some wallet seeds were generated with insufficient randomness, and the attacker used this to access the affected wallets; the flaw was in seed generation, not the Qubic protocol • Affected seeds: created on an iPhone or iPad in any browser before Oct 18, 2026, on a Mac using Safari before Oct 18, 2026, or in the Qubic iOS app before July 2025 • Computors halted the network at tick 85,371,949, so 87.1% of the drained funds remain frozen on-chain • The other 12.9% went to MEXC, which froze the receiving account within about an hour; exchanges suspended QUBIC deposits and withdrawals • Seed generation is fixed in version 4.26.4, and any resolution is up to the Computor quorum ⚠️ Analyst Note: This is a key-generation failure, not a protocol bug. Seeds made with weak randomness can be guessed, so every wallet created on the listed platforms should be treated as exposed and moved to a new seed made with the fixed version. Expect "recovery service" scams: Qubic says it will never message first, ask for a seed, or charge for recovery.
