Title: Cryptocurrency theft has become a major security in Japan..
Post by: bossloccox on April 08, 2018, 11:26:15 AM
I read this on Bitcoin News , additional information in cryptoworld.
Cybersecurity experts have warned that half of the stolen "NEM" coins might have been laundered already on the darknet.  
That's why Japanese authorities have decided to set up a center dedicated to combatting cybercrime, including crypto theft . 500 analysts and investigators from different branches of country's law enforcement agencies have joined the unit.
I know some members here have their NEM token on their wallet...
This restriction of Japan on the growing cybercrime trend in crypto world is what we need to avoid different scams.

It is true that most tokens are hard to track.
And many exchanges have security issues, so it is necessary to set up such a department. ;D

The thing about this thefts is that there is an international scene for them and a very complex one, it is like prosecuting a criminal that moves the money across 10 jurisdictions and having to get an order in all of them.

Base on what I read, I decided to just agree in this kind of security in Japan, because I know most of us been benefited on this maybe not just time but for the securities of everybody who are into btc.

This is actually inevitable. Any government in their right mind will do that especially when it involved the theft of a huge amount of cryptocurrency that translates into huge amount of fiat. This is the government's duty in the cryptoworld, thwart and prevent any hack/scam to happen. Though, one caveat that we could get here is that they will implement more restrictions and policies towards cryptocurrencies. This will be beneficial for us in the long run because many people will invest to cryptomarket once they think that it is safe to invest in it.

Japan is working really hard to stop cyber crime and crypto theft. This shows the support of Japan towards cryptocurrency. Though it cannot be said the steps undertaken by the Japan government will be fruitful or not. But we hope for the best.

Nem hack happened ages ago.

Security for cryptos are especially important because of the fact that they are irreversible. Since it is decentralized, there is no way for a central entity to reverse payments the same way it is done through the banking system. So exchanges should always protect their wallets with sufficient measures, something that wasn't done in the NEM hack.

Scams are a completely different thing. Crypto scams can happen to anyone that is buying stuff with BTC. Again, the irreversibility of btc is exploited.

Japan, probably, is one of the most loyal countries with regard to bitcoin. They want to create a stabilization fund for the bitcoin course. Prohibit various projects that have signs of fraud. Fight against cybercrime. There is a very large tax in Japan on digital money. And I understand where these resources are used.

It only means japan is eager to protect their citizens from these attacks,and i hope they will be able to track these bastards so that these people will get caught and put into jail for the rest of their life,stealing someone else money is never a good idea because these people are earning their money in a hard way which these people doesnt understand.

It is true that we need to avoid to fall victims of scams but at the same time those that lost their tokens in that way were not completely responsible for it, the one that was responsible was the exchange, which show to us that we need avoid leaving our tokens there only as long as it's absolutely necessary and as soon as you are done trading you need to get your tokens out of it or you risk losing them in a hack.
