Bithumb, the world's fourth largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume, confirmed a security incident during which an unknown hacker was able to make off with an yet undetermined amount of funds.
Clues that something was wrong emerged on Thursday, when South Korean users, who make most of Bithumb's userbase, started complaining on a local social network about losing control over large funds stored in their Bithumb accounts.
Yeah, thats why everyone should be really careful and keep their crypto in wallets! Sad
Sad news.. that is why I always keep my crypto in my wallet.. :)
Never heard of this exchange..
Cryptos need better security system. yea
What a mayor incentive is the boom of crypto currencies value for hackers, make no mistake about that, in the very same proportion this new economy grows so will be its difficulties and challenges for security.
