Suspected GoMining Hack: Specter Flags 600+ Wallets and ~$2.8M Consolidated in ETH

On-chain monitor Specter flagged a coordinated drain on 4 September 2026 targeting more than 600 wallets suspected to be linked to GoMining, the Bitcoin mining and rewards platform. Combined losses total approximately $2.8 million. That is the Monday 7 September 2026 stamp.

This remains suspected and unconfirmed. GoMining has not issued an official statement. The desk stresses the wallet cluster is on-chain inference, not company confirmation.

What Specter stamped

A single service address tagged on-chain as GoMining lost approximately $2.79 million, nearly the entire haul. Remaining losses spread across 600-plus other addresses, many with a prior history of holding GMT, GoMining’s native token. Holding GMT alone does not confirm platform affiliation for every address.

Attackers swapped and bridged stolen assets across multiple chains before consolidating into roughly 1,147 ETH. CoinGabbar flagged suspected theft address 0xa73…4704 as a destination of the initial drain.

Bitget pause, official silence

Bitget suspended GOMINING-ETH deposits and withdrawals on 5 September 2026 at 07:28 UTC+8, citing “wallet maintenance.” A GoMining ambassador account separately said on X that withdrawals were blocked and GMT had sold off — community color, not official guidance.

Until GoMining speaks, markets are pricing this as unconfirmed operational risk, not a proven protocol exploit.

Bessent Presses Senate on CLARITY Ahead of Sept. 15 Cloture, Framing Crypto Market Structure as National Security

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged the Senate to advance the CLARITY Act, warning that walking away would forfeit enhanced crypto national-security tools and signal the U.S. is ceding digital-asset leadership. The Sept. 15 vote is cloture on the motion to proceed to H.R. 3633 — it needs 60 votes and is not final passage. The tone shifts from July’s market-structure urgency to a national-security frame.
