On January 10, 2026 at around 11 pm UTC a victim lost $282M+ worth of LTC & BTC due to a hardware wallet social engineering scam.
The attacker began converting the stolen LTC & BTC to Monero via multiple instant exchanges causing the XMR price to sharply increase.
BTC was also bridged to Ethereum, Ripple, & Litecoin via Thorchain.
Theft addresses (2.05M LTC, 1459 BTC):

XMR's rally was largely due to one hacker?

finally starting to try out claude because i feel like i'll be left behind in no time if i do not start learning and using it effectively
i do think the future will belong to those with high agency, and of course, those who can leverage ai to 10x themselves
let's see how i can integrate claude into my life

i do sense some level of coordination on today’s AI/bags pump so i remain somewhat a skeptic might cost me some opportunities, but it is what it is
my gut feeling saved me on this one
also, judging by what just happened with cow, onchain conditions are still quite toxic to trade
appetite is there, but environment isn’t
continue to be selective and avoid burning your money

"And with that disclaimer out of the way, I must reiterate my sincere regrets to the CT/BAGS crowd, who so generously funded me to the tune of just shy of $300k last week on bags.fm. That money was hard to duck, and the funds are deeply appreciated. They will help Gas Town be a big success this year.
