Title: Did the bad guys sell to themselves at a 1¢, so that $1k withdrawal = 100kBTC? Post by: bc on June 20, 2011, 04:51:35 AM I hope not, but that would explain the crazy price.

Post by: ahitman on June 20, 2011, 07:21:16 AM They got a list of accounts, but not access to ALL the accounts. The passwords were encrypted, but not strongly, so if you had a weak password it is possible for someone to decrypt it. The crazy part is that they got access to the database through a compromised computer that is owned bu the someone who was doing a security audit on the back end of the exchange!
