The recent COLDCARD hack has been a painful reminder that even experienced Bitcoin users can become victims of sophisticated attacks.
First and foremost, our thoughts are with everyone affected. We know that losing access to your Bitcoin is more than a financial setback, it can be an incredibly stressful and frustrating experience.
Many victims have already reported the wallet addresses involved to BitcoinWho’sWho.com, helping alert the community to suspicious activity. If you’ve done that, thank you. Community reporting plays an important role in helping others avoid the same fate.
But reporting a wallet address is only the first step.
One resource that often goes overlooked is the Bitcoin Who’s Who Crypto Scam Report Map. We created this free tool to help victims around the world quickly find the appropriate law enforcement agency responsible for investigating cryptocurrency scams, hacks, thefts, and fraud in their jurisdiction.

Official reporting matters.
Every report filed with law enforcement contributes valuable information that can help investigators identify patterns, connect related cases, coordinate across jurisdictions, and build cases against criminal organizations. Individual reports may seem small on their own, but together they create a much clearer picture of an attack and increase the likelihood that stolen funds can be traced or that those responsible can eventually be identified.
Whether your incident involved the recent COLDCARD hack or another cryptocurrency scam, we encourage you to take both steps:
- Report the suspicious wallet address to BitcoinWho’sWho.com to help warn the community.
- Report the incident to the appropriate law enforcement agency using our Crypto Scam Report Map.
The more victims who come forward, the stronger the collective effort becomes. Every report strengthens the data available to investigators, supports exchanges and blockchain intelligence professionals, and helps protect future victims from similar attacks.
If you’ve already submitted the wallet address to BitcoinWho’sWho.com, thank you for doing your part. If you haven’t yet filed an official report, consider this your reminder.
Together, we can improve the quality of cryptocurrency crime reporting, support ongoing investigations, and make it more difficult for criminals to operate in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
