Bitcoin Depot reports $3.6M theft after internal wallet breach
Hackers stole roughly 50.903 BTC, valued at about $3.6 million, from Bitcoin Depot’s corporate IT systems on March 23. The breach was confined to internal wallets and did not affect customer‑facing platforms. Investigations continue into additional costs such as legal and reputational impacts.

Kraken reported a 114% year-over-year revenue surge to $648 million in Q3, driven by stronger trading activity, user growth and new acquisitions as the crypto exchange accelerates expansion. Management flagged that the performance underpins its push toward an eventual IPO, bolstering capital and market positioning amid rising institutional and retail demand. The jump in top-line results signals improved profitability prospects and intensifies competition with larger exchanges, while execution on integration and regulatory compliance will determine whether Kraken can sustain growth and valuation ahead of a public listing.
