Assets frozen following the 2016 BitRss hack are still being held by authorities. According to reports, as many as 1,159 BTC could be released back into circulation, but this is not yet confirmed.

The hackers involved in the attack used COLDCARD devices to steal funds from users' accounts. It appears that the attackers have begun to launder smaller amounts of money through various channels, according to recent observations.

No further details were provided regarding the current status of the frozen assets or the efforts being made to recover them.
