POPA ReconQubic says an attacker drained 1,404 wallets of about 2.94 trillion QU between 23:42 UTC Oct 17 and 01:26 UTC Oct 18, blaming weak randomness in wallet seed generation, not the protocol (Qubic thread, WuBlockchain summary). The network halted transactions at tick 85,371,949, with 87.1% of stolen funds frozen on chain and 12.9% sent to MEXC where the account was also frozen, while other exchanges paused QUBIC deposits and withdrawals. Cointelegraph puts the loss near $1.4M (report). Qubic says the seed issue is fixed in v4.26.4 and further action sits with the Computor quorum. It asks victims to file police reports with wallet ID, amount and explorer link (guidance). A Russian channel claims Apple device randomness was the cause, which Qubic has not confirmed in material reviewed, so treat that detail as unverified.
