Bitpay has been hacked? [Edit: FALSE ALARM]

[Dafar]

I'm seeing some posts in Twitter about BitPay being hacked. Over $80,000,000 worth of bitcoin gone. Can anyone confirm this?

If this is true that's terrible when the new years was starting off so well. Shit like this will discredit bitcoin more than countries banning it.

edit 2: looks like it was false alarm, move on

FTR, I have gotten no confirmations from other @bitpay customers confirming a hack, and an email from their CEO says everything is fine.

80 000 000 gone?
Just check the address history , some of those 80 000 000 were transferred a long time ago from it.
Also 82 mils is the total sum the address ever received , not the sum that it was in it .

So no sources other than Twitter and Reditt?

And I need glasses as I thought the title said Bitcoin has been hacked  .

Again some dumbass jumping to the wrong conclusion. A load of rubbish imo

[Bitcoin2CDKey]

don't believe in the trolls who want buy cheap.

this is the reason for the "notice of hack".

BUT BITPAY DO THIS EVERYDAY, THEY SEND THE BALANCES TO THE CUSTOMERS MANUALLY FOR SECURITY REASONS. -.-

You cant withdraw from bitpay, they send you your coins when they can do it, for example, the blockchain's url up here.

Dont troll the newbies LOSERS.

i haxx0red the btici0n pr0tickle. giff me al yuor cions.

edit: do u even FUD?

[dontek]

What would make one thing they were "hacked" and BTC being stolen? That account looks just the same like any exchange accounts, etc. Nothing to see here, move along.

[T.Stuart]

It's simply not true. Please edit the title of the post to make this clear now.

[watuba]

That was a nice waste of oxygen

[niothor]

Please change the title to something with less to none FUD or you're going to see your button going brown.
Friendly advice.
