About the Mk3 draining, attackers can choose different "cones" to look into for wallets to hack.
The weak Yasmarang RNG value is determined by a small state (pad + chip/mixer skip history).
A "cone" is just a hypothesis about that history, e.g: first boot vs later login vs weird PIN session.
Each cone is a slice of skip/space.
Wrong cone → almost no hits.
Right cone → mnemonics become enumerable.
That’s why wallets can still sit unexplored in other cones.
The attack can go on for years and still find utxos
