Praveen Perera(@PraveenPerera):I need everyone to understand how fucked this is, I only scanned for index 0 addresses against the known set of addresses that had 500 BTC stolen. In about 5 minutes and less than $5 of GPU time I found 2 private keys that were stolen in the attack, those 2 wallets had a total of ~34 BTC. I was not looking possible compromised wallets that still has bitcoin in them. Imagine what someone with a budget and ill will could do. Eventually ALL wallets that were generated on the mk3 that is vulerable will be stolen. So if you did not roll at least 50 dice rolls, or did not use a BIP39 passphrase more than 7 BIP39 words long, move your funds. Even if you did, you should probably move it anyway.
