BTER is reporting that 50m NXT, or roughly $1.65m at press time, has been stolen from its exchange following an attack on one of its hosting servers.

Well this is getting worst... One of these days, there will be no more currencies, not being hacked.

Shocking how many hacks occur.

Well people and exchnages just really need to step up their security.

This is what I am saying ....... Your coins are only safe on a paper wallet.

Once it's online, it's under attack from hackers. How much of this is organized? Would we ever know?

Put it on a memory stick and the firmware gets hacked. {BadUsb exploit}
Klee's hack was due to his own "slip up" but he got hacked anyways
MtGox {Hack excuse.. who will know}
Lunamine {hack scam.. who will know}

yeah and now they want a rollback for the blockchain...and maybe next time they roll it back when some criminals used that crappy currency? nxt is dead.

the Litecoin Devs said, that they will never do a rollback because its probably the death of the currency.
