Bithumb Stock Exchange lost 3 million EOS and 20 million XRP due to a new hack. On Saturday morning, March 30, Bitcoin Exchange Bithumb announced that it will no longer accept deposits and will not pay any monies. The South Korean platform has decided to take this step after its trade monitoring system revealed abnormal payouts of cryptocurrencies involving insiders. Prima Ventures partner Davie Van was one of the first to pay attention to the unusual money transfer from Bithumb wallets. She wrote that more than 3 million EOS have been withdrawn from the cold wallets (about $ 12.6 million at the current exchange rate). Wang later clarified that it is most likely a "hot" wallet. The information was confirmed by the security company responsible for auditing Bithumb's accounts. According to Van, there was a theft of money after the private key of the Bithumb account was stolen in the EOS blockchain with the username g4ydomrxhege. She also mentioned the exchanges where the stolen coins were sent. Most of the coins went to EXMO, Huobi, KuCoin, CoinSwitch, ChangeNOW, HitBTC and Changelly. In addition, less significant amounts were sent to Binance and BW. Against the background of these reports, the price of EOS has undergone some correction, which has fallen by 2.5% per day against the USD. However, with regard to BTC, the cryptocurrency remains stable. Regarding the post of one of the commentators, Van wrote that the Bithumb XRP wallet was also hacked. From this wallet 20 million XRP (about 6 million US dollars) were withdrawn. Davi Van believes that this is not the first bithumb hacking case and writes that the previous lesson does not seem to have taught the stock market so much. He is puzzled how the stock market could save a cryptocurrency for such a large amount only in a wallet ... She notes that Bithumb is the only major crypto exchange in South Korea that does not currently have a banking partner, and she also wonders how she could get a license from regulators. In the second consecutive hacking, Bithumb may question the plans of the US IPO. #Bitcoin #Bitcoins #Kryptowahrung #BTC #Blockchain #Kryptowahrungen #Kryptomarkt #EOS #XRP https://www.instagram.com/p/BvuB_p_AXhR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l94pko3iiwys
