Why? Nobody should store their funds in an exchange, but i can understand why traders do it, as for non-traders, i really cannot, when there are a lot of self custodial wallets out there to use. I am not really concerned about the kind of people who lost funds, i just hope the learn a lesson from this.

$14m from 9 users is a crazy stat, i don't know what people think. Centralized exchanges hold a huge amount of money, they ought to know that they would constantly be under attack from hackers, they should be investing more money into security of funds and data too.
