Perhaps they were noticing something suspicious when the exchange halted its trading engine in the previous times. And right now they are hacked. Coincidence?

It's an easy assertion to make, but of course correlation does not prove causation.
Nonetheless, NOW they're hacked. Undecided

And if *they* got hacked, with all the security layers they had in place, I really fear for the Bitcoin ecosystem. This is no MtGox rookie player.

It's one thing to assert the axiom that every system is hackable. But with digital money, if that means that every dollar in crypto is hackable, well that's not good for the use of said crypto.
