So the jerks provided an update on Reddit a few hours ago, but I gotta say it's the most useless update about such a grave situation
update...

At the moment less than 1% of our monthly active users have been affected/reported. Last drained transaction was confirmed over 40h ago. Security investigation is ongoing. We report victim addresses to major exchanges & blockchain analytics to trace and block the stolen funds.

Less than 1%!! Really?

How do they determine if the users were less than 1%. Why don't they value what has been drain in monetary terms instead of stupid percentages.

Probably based on report which received on their email address and personal data which collected by their wallet. Their privacy policy mention these,

That's not a good move. Importing 12 kata into the new wallet you want to transfer will be meaningless because the 12 kata you import are from the initial wallet you are using.
The good thing is to send coins from the wallet you are using to the new wallet you are going to use.
What is meaning of "kata"? Is japannese language?

It also could be indonesian word which means "word".
