On the 17th of September at around 9:30 AM UTC AdBit was hacked.
A total of 6 BTC was stolen (~$1,400), the amount the hot wallet had at the time. The remaining funds (cold wallet) are safe.
The problem isn't the loss of the bitcoins, since we can easily cover it, it's the method the hacker used, as we could not find out how he did it after many hours of cautiously looking at the code and logs.
This leaves no other option but to close the website for a complete code rewrite.
Meanwhile, you can email
h...@adbit.co using your account's email address so we can refund your balance (both publishers and advertisers).
There is currently no date estimation for when the website will be back up.
We were always honest and transparent with our users and that will never change.
