Here's the original tweet from Bloomberg Tech Reporter in Toyko, Yuji Nakamura. https://twitter.com/ynakamura56/status/956790270036619265 https://twitter.com/ynakamura56/status/956790270036619265
Tweet In English:
> Japanese crypto exchange Coincheck halts withdrawals, deposits, trading in NEM. Rumors is a big chunk was moved from their wallet. Also seems >$130m of XRP moved out too. I called Coincheck, but they wouldn't answer questions and asked me to email them
Here's the actual Ripple XRP Transaction that is moving the 101-ish Million XRP out of the Coincheck account. https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/transactions/FC32DBF1C0CE6780A669349FEDF7BD9EC18033EB79B3DC8F1ADBAE9B5EAD3EF8 https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/transactions/FC32DBF1C0CE6780...
Here's a news page / story that is following this and updating it frequently. It mentions that XRP was also stolen in addition to NEM. https://bitpinas.com/news/coincheck-suspends-nem-trading-rumor-460m-xem-lost/ https://bitpinas.com/news/coincheck-suspends-nem-trading-rum...
- ReverseCold 9y agoThe 530M figure was in XEM (been floating around $1) - but that may be an additional amount.
- TheAdamist 9y agoThe stolen 101m xrp moved into an account that already had 3billion xrp? That seems odd to begin with. Is it another exchange or coin tumbler or something?
- ribosometronome 9y agoThat wallet only has 45 transactions on it -- that doesn't seem reasonable for a tumbler or an exchange, does it? Also, 3 billion XRP means that they have 12% of all circulating XRP right now.
