The open-source Bitcoin payment processor issued an emergency warning on November 1, instructing users to stop their servers while its team investigates the incident and determines the extent of the reported losses. The project said attackers were sweeping hot wallets connected to BTCPay Server installations. It recommended keeping instances offline until further instructions.
