I was one of those hacked. I always use atomic wallet on a dedicated laptop that is not used for anything else other than a wallet. I couldn't get my EOS to send, so support recommended I download the wallet to another device and I did, to my cell phone on May 31, from the Apple store. I believe that my account was compromised when I entered the seed phrase on  my Iphone. What do you think?
Very likely, though not conclusive.

This particular issue involved lots of innocent users, and the term behind atomic wallet have not yet given any clear explanation about the exploit.



Just did a quick look around, has there been ANY update anywhere on this?

At this point they are not ever going to be considered secure again, but they seem to have just stopped mentioning it and as far as I can tell so have a lot of the online places that I read
They were never secure in the first place (in regard to not having an open source code)  Wink

Pretty messed up wallet and the team behind it. I would treat it the same as a centralized exchange or a service that has already been completely compromised.
