All these places store passwords as salted hashes. Always a good idea to change your password in these cases but I really doubt they just got a list of plane text usernames and passwords. Typically they target a few key accounts and bruteforce the hash.

Is this legit? Are there any other news pages that have something about
this story? Someone knows a link to the hacker forum mentioned? How can
this be verified?

Do they have my steem password? Certainly not. LOL

Who nows, but there is lots of others sites with same info, look:
