Millions Of Dogecoins Stolen In Apparent Heist, via @felix_cohen
Dogecoin users are in a minor panic after a popular coin storage service, Dogewallet, was apparently hacked. So far about 30 million coins seem to have been lost, together worth between $10,000 and $20,000.
Dogecoin, a new cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin and the popular “doge” meme, was initially created as a joke, according to its creators, “without much real thought.” But it is functional, and thousands of people have invested small amounts of money in it. And while the minuscule value of each coin has fluctuated wildly in recent weeks, the 14 billion coins that have already been mined are, on paper, worth millions of dollars.
