Bitcoin Surges to Nearly $64,000 Amid Uncertainty Over Coldcard Wallet Sweeps

Bitcoin price reached nearly $64,000 in Asian trading hours on Tuesday, reclaiming the $63,000 level after dipping to around $62,250 on Monday. The cryptocurrency rebounded despite ongoing uncertainty surrounding unresolved Coldcard wallet sweeps that have drained hundreds of Bitcoin.

The recovery came as BNB led weekly gains among major cryptocurrencies, with ether being the only large token still down over the past seven days. XRP rose almost 1% to $1.08 and is up 2% on the week, while Solana gained over 1% to nearly $74.

The Coldcard situation remains unresolved, with a fourth wave of sweeps against addresses generated by the affected firmware running through Monday. Galaxy Research has not confirmed whether the same operator is behind it. Strategy's Bitcoin treasury firm disclosed that it sold 1,638 BTC for about $105 million between July 27 and Aug. 2, its third sale of 2026.
