Do not panic. Everything is back to normal.

MetaWin CEO Skel said the gambling site was hacked. $4 million stolen. Onchain sleuth ZackXBT revealed that the attacker moved the stolen funds to Kucoin and a HitBTC nested service. He also identified more than 115 addresses associated with the malicious actor.

According to MetaWin CEO Skel, the attacker hacked MetaWin's hot wallets via the platform's frictionless withdrawal system — prompting the platform to halt withdrawals. However, the CEO also said that withdrawals were restored for 95% of the platform's customers at the time of writing.

It is good that the gambling site has enabled back withdrawal. I hope all the stolen coins will also be recovered.

In fairness to Metawin CEO, they immediately solved such a big issue. I hope all reputable casinos online have such quick action that hackers do on platforms similar to casinos like that.
It means that the action they took in that matter was good.

It's really interesting. When I read the article, I can really say that the users of MetaWin who play there are safe. I will try to play there on MetaWin next week and find out what
there is that can be played that is not available in others.
