In reference to Cryptopia’s notice about EMC2 wallet:
‘Market Paused 10 December 2018 - Our EMC2 market pause is ongoing, as we have determined that this coin suffered a 51% network attack in September, and associated issues have not yet been resolved with the development team. We will provide further updates as they become available, apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience in the meantime. ’ Here is our statement/update:
The issue with Cryptopia that differs from other exchanges is that Cryptopia did not have monitoring tools in place for EMC2 and probably not for many other coins, and let attack continues for 10 days.
In situations of 51% attack, exchanges usually close the doors immediately, and work with development teams on investigating possible financial damage and applying updates to close security holes or to push major security improvements, what EMC2 did.
Security part was covered by implementing KMD dPoW which protects coin from further threats. Other exchanges already updated the wallet and let the market go. EMC2 is well protected now.
On financial side, we had informal agreement with Cryptopia to keep the market running even before Lightsaber release and to do a refund up to 200k of EMC2 in the case attack. At that time Cryptopia was not affected by those 51% attacks.
200k of EMC2 was taken as the number that matched the daily volume on Cryptopia and was also amount that Einsteinium Foundation was comfortable with to do refund. Double spent trades are only percentage of total daily trades, thus 200k of EMC2 was more than enough as insurance.
Back to the the topic - the issue with Cryptopia is simply that they were not aware that they’ve been hacked until we asked them to upgrade the wallet to Lightsaber, so they performed sum check and noticed missing coins. They came back to Einsteinium asking to cover the total of 10 days hacking which is 1,788,545 EMC2 coins. Einsteinium Foundation does not want (nor can) to go over agreed 200k. Accepting refund would mean accepting other costs and putting market back to normal.
It is on Cryptopia turn to let the public know what is coming next.
#cryptopia be like ...

at the current rate loss of exchange 25 BTC. This is not too much for such an exchange. Users should not suffer, it is not their fault. If hackers hack into my account and take my money, the exchange returns nothing to me. So I should not pay for the problems of the exchange.

We have people with good scientific knowledge to talk to people who submit projects. They can ask the right questions and are able to understand if everything is legit.

Cryptopia sent an email stating that on January 4th they will open withdrawal for the remaining of the coins they have and will delist EMC2 after that.

Yes hard fork will happen, in 2019. The implementation of Komodo DPoW delayed all the other projects the team was working on. Poloniex delisted EMC2 based on ICO listing rules which doesn't apply to EMC2. Cryptopia is delisting EMC2 because the team won't payback 10 days of negligence. The team was ready to payback 1 day of trading if an attack happened but it happened for 10 days. Cryptopia realized they got attacked when we asked them to update their wallet in october (the attack happened in september). EMC2 is not delisted because the team is not active or the coins has low volume.

Could you explain what is the connection between delisting from cryptopia and hard fork?
