I was just wondering, given the record prices - how soon will we hear about a hack? And here we are.
Though I wonder why the announcement says:
> We are working to verify the precise number of BTC taken.
While the article says:
> A wallet address circulated by NiceHash users shows that more than $60 million of bitcoins might be affected, according to CoinDesk, the cryptocurrency research and news website.
- modwilliam 9y agoThere is no official announcement on the BTC taken, but reddit users have been passing around a wallet that suddenly got $60m recently
- nerdponx 9y agoIt will be interesting to see if, when, and how they try to move all that crypto-loot. I'd be surprised if BTC/USD didn't start falling in anticipation of increased supply (and hopefully some healthy trepidation regarding the state of Bitcoin security), since Bitcoin is still the main source of liquidity between crypto and fiat.
