Auto-generated score, not yet verified against the scoring model. Under review — treat as indicative, not a verdict.
anchored·5Uh9GE…kDS5Summary
Ill Bloom is an actively exploited cryptographic vulnerability disclosed by blockchain security firm Coinspect in July 2026, stemming from insecure pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) used during seed phrase generation in certain lesser-known mobile software wallets. Attackers have confirmed drained at least $5 million from over 2,100 identified vulnerable addresses across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Tron, Solana, and Rootstock, with wallets remaining at risk as of the disclosure date. The vulnerability is not a scam or fraud entity but represents an ongoing, active-exploitation security threat requiring immediate action by potentially affected users.
