Very few could grade above it's level in terms of transparency.
What do you mean here? Let's be honest, no centralized, closed source exchange could ever be really transparent at all. CRAPTOPIA broadcasted exactly and per account what they were holding. Articulating the sum total in each account, exactly for post haxor accounting, would be beneficial. Cryptopia was 1 of few exchanges to actually publish the docket of coins on deposit. It was the most glass of houses. The tragedy here is the most transparent of blockchain exchanges still fuck'd it up.

Cryptopia has always been actually very good except with shit coins getting forked out. I would not have expected this to have happened in this way. If it really is an internal job that will be shocking. Who has the real figure of the hack yet. I keep seeing 30M then 3M .... ? 50M? 5m? They obviously did not bother taking the low value low volume shit coins anyway so most of the penny traders will be okay if they reopen and allow trading to continue or withdrawal of peoples coins. Are they still trying to see exactly what was taken or they now know?

We should not hold our funds on exchanges as they could be hacked any time and not all the exchanges refund their customers in such situations. Hardware wallets like Ledger Nano or trezor are the safest solution for storing your funds. Only the funds for trading should be kept on exchanges.

Now you need to wait for announcement from the exchange. I hope that they will return all the stolen funds to their users.
Getting an exchange hacked doesn't mean they want to steal their user coins and they can make that money in the long run or even more, You never know who is the hacker, an entity or the exchange.

As i understand they stole just ERC20 tokens. It is sad story and a reminder that the coins need to be stored only on the wallet, the private keys of which you own yourself.

Unfortenly, most likely this is a game over for Cryptopia. Who knows, whom is a real hacker, maybe Cryptopia owners just stealed user funds by themselves and all this news is only fairy tale. Now is not an easy time for a little exchanges and they want to survive anyways.

But cryptopia looks shady for few months and now most of the people expected there is a hack happened.Lot of veterans habe suspicion that they did by themselves for exit scam without much bad name for the brand but anyway all the people who kept their funds at that exchange forget about it and move on it is unlikely to get into you.

Still Waiting... [skeleton.gif] It maybe near time to report to NZP the exchange has having stolen all our coins (because they have effectively) and at least it would force them to release a detailed statement of the situation. https://online.police.govt.nz/ "Missing Property" report station https://app.companiesoffice.govt.nz/companies/app/ui/pages/companies/5392901?backurl=%2Fcompanies%2Fapp%2Fui%2Fpages%2Fcompanies%2Fsearch%3Fmode%3Dstandard%26type%3Dentities%26q%3DCryptopiaI maybe daft, but if someone steals a candy bar from Circle-K, it is common practice to shutter the doors for weeks while Law Officials twittle twattle about the "on-going" investigation? https://elementus.io/blog/cryptopia-hack-transparency/Nobody seems to know:
How the theft took place: How, when, and where were the funds taken? How much was lost: Cryptopia has not disclosed how much was stolen. Media reports on the total value of stolen assets range from $3m to $13m. The current status of the stolen funds: We've seen a few blips about exchanges freezing stolen funds, but nothing on how much was frozen or where the rest of the funds sit.
This hack impacts thousands of people who have funds in Cryptopia's custody. While Cryptopia may have their reasons for remaining quiet, we think it's important for the facts to be known.

Keeping funds online isnt bad as long as you know that the wallet or exchange is legit and you dont also need to blame yourself if ever they got hacked because its an accident anyway and its not your fault , its also not their fault because they arent lacking of security precuations . its just hacker are more smart than regular individuals . I know cryptopia before and they were totally legit so theres no chance that they could turn into scam .
