"As far as NEM is concerned, tech is intact. We are not forking. Also, we would advise all exchanges to make use of our multi-signature smart contract which is among the best in the landscape. Coincheck didn't use them and that's why they could have been hacked. They were very relaxed with their security measures,"
Lon Wong, President of the NEM.io Foundation
Doesnt really matter what the truth is, the crypto world is stupid and will read this as flaws with NEMs product.
Depressing, going to take a long time to recover from this.
Hacker accounts will be blacklisted by exchanges, his XEM will be useless.
Consider those XEM as burned; the remaining, in the log run, will gain from this hack.
