I remember seeing a similar thread in 2017, but that time it was BTC and BCH which got stolen. One of the users had installed the Electrum wallet after the BCH fork, and after a few minuets all of his BTC/BCH was gone. It was later found that he had visited a phishing site and had downloaded a compromised version of the wallet. I think the same could have happened in this case as well.
well it turns out that someone still remembers that thread, I also feel that a similar incident happened some time ago, a wallet that is installed like that is very scary because it can make your assets disappear and your PC is hacked like that, so you should be able to be careful when installing the wallet that is specifically installed on your PC.

If you are using wallets on your PC then you need to be more careful, windows can easily get hacked or  hijacked, I bet if you are on mobile wallet that would never happen, sorry for your loss

It is obvious there is a rouge miner on Bitcoin SV. This rouge miner is on viabtc pool. Look at the stats.

This miner would come at 1000.00 PH/s then leave after an hour or so. Then back down to 300Ph/s. Luck goes 150% then falls back to 85%.

Double spending stealing everyones coins who use Electrum wallet. Stay away from Electrum SV wallet just use another wallet.

51% attack

13 Orphaned blocks?


This rouge miner got all his 13 blocks orphaned and has been mining secretly. ViaBTc pool is investigating this issue.

Once a man, twice a child!
I don't know who has to hear this, I have said it time without numbers that people should be very weary of the Electrum wallet. If people can, they should totally ignore using that wallet pending when the issue around its fragility and susceptibility are resolved.

Ok, so if you downloaded it to their website then there's no way that you can lost your BSV. And the only reason I can think of:

(1) Your machine is compromised
(2) Someone close to you get ahold of your private key and steal the money from you.

@shinratensei_ - the OP is talking about Bitcoin SV Electrum and not Electrum per se. They are different applications so you can't compare Electrum vulnerabilities to Bitcoin SV Electrum, different developers as well.

Oops! sorry about your loss friend. But I think you haven't make the right choice of wallet. Go download atomic wallet from https://atomicwallet.io and be safe. Its the best wallet so far.

That's impossible because it needs 51% hashrate to make it able.

I am not sure what went wrong but it is hard to digest that a software wallet has stolen your BitcoinSV. I am sure this issue is related to wallet update. Such issue only arise when either there is a malware in your system or your wallet is not updated.

Your private keys leaked somehow.
No miner can help you. No one can double spend coins.  Nobody will reverse an already 73 confirmation transaction,  specially for such low 0.02 bsv

As far as I understand your problem is simple that you received some coins to an address which someone else also has the private keys.

Did you generate that private key by yourself?
Were you using some online mining tool? You were probably scammed by someone. Do not use any other address from that wallet. Uninstall this wallet .

If you look at the stats of this coin on mining pools. It is very clear that there is a certain miner or group of miners performing the 50% attack. The shit is at like 300ph with like 80% luck then some fucker comes in with like 500ph and the luck goes up to 150% then leaves an hour later.


Some rouge miner on Bitcoin SV

There is no known malware on my computer. This looks like the unspent coins hack going around. There is some bug in this wallet that someone exploited and also there is some miner with more hashpower than the chain.


The wallet was open on the desktop waiting for coins received transaction to finish then all the sudden a transaction was made and all coins gone.

I had just switched to poolin . com mining pool. That pool looks shady.

Privacy is always important
Let me ask if the electrumsv wallet is asking for an update?
If ever you just upgrading it recently there is a well-known vulnerability on Electrum or any fork of Electrum wallet where it asking for an update with fake electrum website. So if you update it with the link popup on the Electrumsv you might be use a fake Electrumsv wallet.

In case that if you didn't well your PC might be infected just like the above said. You must fully scan your PC with AV and Malwarebytes to check if you are infected. Without AV in your PC you are in at risk.
