Some Newbies on Bitcointalk claimed the same. The accounts were only created to post this, which is what many scammers do to promote their scam.
Judging by its timing ["after what I said"], it does look like what you mentioned.

How do they even know 100 BTC was stolen?
They probably made that up and it's a perfect case wherein none of the affected users [if there are any] are going to disclose such information and they'd probably do the same as well [nature of their service].

None of their recent announcements makes much sense and I see the following things as possibilities:

  • A marketing strategy to create some buzz and increase their reputation.
  • It was never a "non-custodial service".
  • Somehow it really got hacked.

Personally, I'm leaning towards the first two being the case, but I could be wrong.
