Neither Lafu nor myself are employees of Cryptopia. Nor are we authorized to make any statements on their behalf. There is no official representation of Cryptopia on Bitcointalk as they only consider discord and twitter as official media channels.
As a client of the exchange I probably have more $ at risk than most.
You are correct that their staff have instructed not to make any statements. Most are on leave as the offices are considered a crime scene.

A reminder that Lafu and xtraelv are not employees of Cryptopia http://archive.fo/bq7DY#selection-5393.0-5401.139 and as such please limit the number of enquiries you make to them as they cannot respond to individual requests for information.
