What changed on this desk

Desk ledger →
Aug 14 Crypto Hacks Tracker: Coinsbuy joins as the month largest confirmed exchange incident: the platform acknowledged unauthorized withdrawals on 9 August, covered client funds from reserves, and posted a 100,000 dollar bounty, while the independent tally of about 7.9 million dollars stays out of the loss column because the company never confirmed it. The Coldcard entry is re-verified: Coinkite has published its technical backgrounder on the entropy defect, still states no theft figure, and the third-party tallies now disagree with each other, TRM counting 1,816 BTC where Galaxy counts 1,596, which is exactly why this table records only what victims disclose.

Jul 31 Crypto Bankruptcy & Recovery Tracker: Tracker launched with 6 estates verified from court and estate sources

How the desk verifies data

Every figure passes the same three checks before it appears, and keeps passing them on a schedule.

  1. Sourced

    Every figure traces to a named primary source: the regulator or statute, an issuer or exchange disclosure, a company filing, or CoinLaw’s own original analysis. No aggregator estimates.

  2. Dated

    Each figure carries the date it was last confirmed, shown on the report and on its card, so you can see how current it is before you rely on it.

  3. Re-checked

    Figures are re-verified on a fixed cycle. Any that cannot be reconfirmed against a current source are marked and queued for refresh rather than quietly left in place.

This desk is informational only and does not constitute financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. Figures describe what sources reported as of the stated dates and can be revised. Confirm with the linked primary source before relying on a number.

Quoting a figure with a link to this page needs no permission. Cite it as you would any source. Reuse of the compiled dataset itself is licensed under CC BY 4.0: credit CoinLaw and link back.
