The users not affected by the hack do not seem very happy.

This is the worst decision that they could make at this stage... the unaffected users are also now going to leave the platform, and they will have to close doors. You make one huge mistake and you want

to rectify that mistake, by making 1000's of little mistakes. If they make poor decisions like this, they will deserve to go down ... at this moment they are circling the drain. Their first mistake was for

them to make use of a hot wallet... the rest is history!  >:(
