We are going to close the year. I would like to share this list of pirated exchanges. After viewing the data, consider how and where you store your Bitcoins.
Since 2011 have stolen millions of dollars from exchanges, account theft, security breaches, phishing, some recovered others filed for bankruptcy. The solution adopted by governments to improve security is to implement more stringent and regulatory policies.
This is a list exchanges hacked 2011/2018, I hope I do not have to update this year.
Remember:> "Not your keys, not your Bitcoin"

Please, post your comment if you are affected by this unpleasant situation or how you solved it, of course, it can help a lot.
Yes, end of the year is just like nightmare for exchanges and also the player. I believe many excahnges with the same problems will comes up and it will make confuse to start new beginning. No exchanges meaning no activity, no activity no income. Exchanges have powerful system and smart people to solve their problems, let's hope they can fix their problems.
