Qubic: 1,404 wallets hacked for $1.3 million in QU, network paused

Qubic issued a public announcement stating that an attack occurred between 23:42 UTC yesterday and 01:26 UTC today: exploiting insufficient randomness in the seed generation of certain wallets, attackers accessed 1,404 Qubic wallets and withdrew approximately 2.94 trillion QU. The announcement clarifies that the issue stems from the seed generation mechanism—not from the Qubic protocol itself. Affected seeds fall into three categories: (1) seeds created in any browser on iPhone or iPad before October 18, 2026; (2) seeds created in Safari on Mac before the same date; and (3) seeds generated via the Qubic iOS app before July 2025. The network has been paused at tick 85,371,949, with 87.1%
