Hi!

In light of transparancy and because our community deserve to know what is going on we are making this official statement.

After conducting our own research we have concluded that Moolah dropped their "stolen" coins and dumped them on PoloniEx.
The mintpal addresses are almost empty: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/grs/wallet.dws?FstRdMu1VRkp7qSCD5zmEZtVyBc1emhTQb.htm
All coins were transfered to PoloniEx on 22 dec: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/grs/address.dws?304346.htm
8.7M were left on PoloniEx to be grabbed for 75 satoshi. Those coins were bought within 12 hours by investors. I'm proud that the community did not panic in this situation and stayed cool.

Around same period (21 dec till 25 dec) coins were dumped of other altcoins like Whitecoin (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=804288.msg9909891#msg9909891) and Digibyte (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=408268.msg9906847#msg9906847) on Cryptsy and Bittrex. We were not the only altcoin being dumped !

This is a good thing for Groestlcoin (and all other altcoins) as the coins are back into circulation. We can leave the Mintpal drama behind us now.
Our research has been shared with Mintpal (FerdousBhai) and PoloniEx (busoni and tf2honeybadger).

Finally we want to thank fairglu for his assistance, swift respons, tagging/pinpointing the mintpal addresses and for having such a transparant (and awesome) block explorer. Without it, it would be difficult to comprehend what was going on.

Best Regards,
