All I have heard talk of so far is just ERC-20 tolkens..
Cryptopia is hacked. All coins seem to be stolen and send to this address https://etherscan.io/address/0x9007a0421145b06a0345d55a8c0f0327f62a2224
Coins are moved now in small batches to exchanges so it's 99.9% sure this is the hackers wallet.
The exchange seems to be attacked with a massive influx of feed tokens and at the same time assets got withdrawn from cryptopia wallets.
Sorry for your losses guys. Lets hope people learn to not keep so many coins on exchanges

Being tracked to exchanges..
Hopefully this is all they were able to get and they might be able to recover some of them from the exchange accounts they are being sent to.
Hopefully the rest of the customers funds are safe.
I have had an account their for years but thankfully I haven't been keeping coin in exchanges in quite a while..

Its worth noting that the first official tweet on the exchanges official Twitter profile regarding the maintenance is from January 13th, saying:
"We are currently experiencing unscheduled maintenance, we are working to resume services as soon as possible. We will keep you updated."
"its somewhat interesting that the attack took place during a bear market where small exchanges struggle to stay afloat, hinting that the possibility of an inside job cannot be rule out."
