"Awh...  Looks like China learned a lesson that we learned about server safety.. and how difficult it is to keep hackers out.

A hack can be very discouraging to the masses.  Look what happened to Bitcoin after gox died in 2011.  If this was a huge exchange, it could have been devastating.  I think someone needs to pull out Google Translate and contact every foreign exchange for security tips because I thought the Chinese Bitcoin exchanges were really pumping us up, buying coins up like candy..  We don't want that to stop!"

Knowing Chinese, a "hack" is always a cover up of inside job
