Title: MoonCoin Message I discovered

"Mooncoin was hacked but I Mr Moon will never be able to prove it because my identity was completely hijacked. My accounts were deleted which made it so I could no longer maintain support for my site.

I believe this was because I maintained my solidcoin exchange. I personally did not want to side with anyone, I wanted to just build an exchange for digital currencies. My site became collateral damage in the childish drama that ensued. At the same time the chain forked, and there were threats of 51% attacks and I believe this is not random coincidence, I believe it this was a planned destruction of solidcoin.

The database was compromised but nearly all the passwords were stored in bcrypt so they should be safe. My home directory was trashed, but my backups only proved the wallets to be empty. I have been silent because to be honest I have had no idea of how to respond to this. This message itself will likely be ignored.

The project is still open if anyone wants to try to take it over and continue it.

Mr Moon"

Any thoughts on this?
Anything?

Isn't this huge news?
A lot of people was in this site; perhaps $50K or worth into this.
Expect a lot of responses....

Maybe everyone already saw this message? and its old news?

Update me on this...

That guy has long gone, and as far as I know, impossible to trace.

that's why you should never trust no name exchanges.
