-1,225 Bitcoin (BTC) worth ¥15.3 billion ¥1.28 billion belonging to customers and ¥250 million to the firm;
-1,985 Bitcoin Cash (BCH) worth ¥70 million ¥40 million (customers) and ¥0.2 billion (firm);

"Bitpoint has moreover revealed its plans to compensate customers in cryptocurrencies rather than in their equivalent fiat value.

The exchange reiterates its belief that the breach occurred due to unauthorized access to the private keys of its hot wallets, and that it now plans to move all holdings into cold storage."

27,8 millions de dollars donc.
Bitpoint affirme que ses clients seront rembourses en cryptos.
Selon eux, ce sont les cles privees des hot wallets qui ont ete compromises.

Y'a beaucoup d'exchanges qui gardent 27,8 millions de dollars en crypto dans les hot wallets ? Huh

Ça me choque. Ca leur fera une leçon, mais c'est un peu cher quoi.
En fait j'ai du mal à y croire. De toutes les façons, ça sent pas bon pour eux.
