Arkham Intelligence

On November 18th of 2025, a Bitcoin flash crash below $90,000 triggered a wave of forced liquidations across the crypto platform Hyperliquid, and Andrew Tate's account was one of them, wiped out completely.

According to Arkham Intelligence, he deposited around $727,000 and lost all of it, while also losing another $70,000 that he initially earned through commission links.

A month later, on December 20th, 2025, he stepped into a boxing ring in Dubai to fight influencer athlete Chase Demore.

This was for an event called the Fight Before Christmas for the MFB Heavyweight title.

Yeah, 100%.

Well, first of all, I wanna give, uh, credit to Arkham Intelligence for, for these numbers and this research.

They've been uncovering a lot of what went down.

But, you know, just following these funds, it appears that a- around $350 million have been drained from Bitget, uh, as of yesterday.

What's interesting is that this happened on the eighth birthday of Bitget during a regional holiday as well.

So, um, some, you know, the, the hacker knew what they were doing with the timing there, certainly.

Seven chains were impacted, five wallets were compromised, and Arkham's labeled the, um, hacker addresses across about 26 initial addresses, although funds have been split further.

228 million of 350 million left in about an 18-minute window.

Among people who track lost and dormant Bitcoin fortunes for a living, a small but attentive online community, Colin's 12 wallets became one of the best-known stories of coins presumed gone forever, filed away alongside the handful of other famous cases of fortunes locked behind forgotten passwords and discarded hard drives.

A blockchain analytics firm called Arkham Intelligence had, by this stage, publicly labeled the addresses Clifton Collins Lost Keys, a tag that let anyone in the world watch the wallet sit motionless, year after year, growing steadily in value while remaining, as far as anybody could tell, permanently unreachable.

Reporting in March 2026 confirmed that the digital wallets remained inaccessible, with the Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan publicly acknowledging that the seized Bitcoin could not be sold.

By that point, the holding's value had climbed to just under €370 million.

And to this day, that method has never been publicly disclosed.

It would not be the last movement, and each time the pattern was the same.

Analysts watching the blockchain, Arkham Intelligence and a second firm called LookOnChain spotted the coins moving hours before CAB or Europol issued so much as a word of official confirmation, so that the story broke first in scattered posts online and only afterward in a press statement.

A second recovery followed in May 2026, this time routed to a winter mute deposit address on Binance rather than Coinbase, worth around 33 million euros as Bitcoin's price climbed in the weeks between.

...

it was a little bit fake because the market maker, which was rumored by Arkham.

Cl- Arkham claimed that it was GSR.

The initial market maker, when the token launched, put $50,000 of liquidity in the pool.

So this thing basically flashed all the way up to 140 billion FDV for the first few, uh, poor souls that tried to buy it, and, um, eventually went down from, uh, it was at 200 plus dollars a token, went down to $3.70 within an hour, and, uh, and now it's something at, like, you know, a few cents.

Sure, wallets are pseudonymous, but in order to receive Bitcoin, you need to provide your address, thus providing your entire transaction history and balance to the sender.

On top of that, services like Arkham have made it trivial for even the general public to track and identify wallets.

Bitcoin isn't private.

The blockchain is entirely public by design.

On base Wednesday, Alex, Hunter Biden's dollar sign laptop cryptocurrency token launched on base the Coinbase built network and peaked minutes later before falling sharply.

The blockchain firm Arkham put the high at $199.51, while another tracker reported a spike above $300.

The early money moved fast.

Blockchain tracker LookOnChain reported that one buyer withdrew $250,000 from Binance ahead of the launch and spent $200,000 on 919 tokens at about $218 each.

It's, it's 8.6 million of volume, if you believe DexScreener here.

I, I did pull up Arkham, but I...

Do I need an account to see, like, real charts here, Drew? I guess I can sign up for free.

Yeah, you do.

Okay.

Should I start using Arkham? Should I-

It's not, it's not loading as fast.

Should I start, um...

It's an intelligence.

It's a social media analysis that was done by Arkham Intelligence, a technology firm, also a retired.

Director of Cybersecurity at the NSA is also confirming all this too.

Here we go.
