The Ill Bloom incident shows that the random number generator was not well implemented. Multi-chain users should check their historical addresses. Security is no small matter.

Coinspect: Ill Bloom Wallet Weak Randomness Risk Has Led to About $5 Million in Assets Being Transferred
Coinspect Security has released the first batch of investigation results regarding the weak randomness risk in the Ill Bloom wallet, stating that affected addresses can be identified using tools and on-chain analysis. The problem has spread to multiple chains since 2018 and is not caused by a single wallet. About $30 million was stolen on May 27, and in recent hours, another roughly $20 million has been transferred out. Still, thousands of accounts remain at risk on Bitcoin, Ethereum and its L2s, Tron, and Solana. SlowMist reminds users to verify their historical wallet addresses and closely follow the latest developments.
