Coinbase Director Warns: $8B Bitcoin Surge May Be Fueled by Hack Attack

Sleeping giant or stolen funds? A Coinbase exec drops a bombshell as Bitcoin's $8 billion awakening triggers alarm bells.

Hack or hype? The crypto community's divided

When $8 billion in dormant BTC suddenly moves, it's either the start of a bull run—or someone's cashing out stolen coins. Coinbase's director of security operations isn't ruling out the latter.

The great Bitcoin heist... or just rich guys waking up?

Timing's suspicious: The coins stirred just as Bitcoin flirted with new 2025 highs. Either early adopters are taking profits, or someone's laundering a decade-old hack. (Wall Street analysts, meanwhile, are still trying to explain how a 'store of value' can move 20% in a week.)

One thing's certain—when this much crypto moves, someone's making bank. The only question is whether they earned it.
