Attackers accessed 1,404 wallets and stole 2.94 trillion QU due to weak wallet-seed generation.

Qubic reported a security breach where attackers accessed 1,404 wallets and transferred about 2.94 trillion QU over a 104-minute period on October 17-18. The breach was caused by weak randomness in wallet-seed generation, allowing attackers to exploit the vulnerability and move assets. Qubic clarified that the issue was with wallet generation, not the Qubic protocol itself, which remained secure. This incident highlights the importance of strong wallet-seed generation for blockchain security.

Qubic's reported security breach involving the transfer of about 2.94 trillion QU from 1,404 wallets is the subject, with Pluang market data provided as context. As of Oct 18, 2026 22:21 WIB, out of 50 major cryptocurrencies tradable on Pluang, 4 rose and 44 fell.
