Unknown cracked the Japanese exchange Coincheck and stole the NEM crypto currency in the amount of $ 533 million
According to the president of the NEM.io fund, Lona Wong, this theft became the largest in history.
Hacked the Japanese exchange for half a billion dollars. About this, with reference to the statement of the representatives of crypto-credit, Coindesk writes.
The size and procedure for paying compensation to victims in Coincheck promised to disclose later.
Bloomberg journalist in Japan, Yuji Nakamura, who visited the press conference of the crypto-exchange, told Twitter that scammers abducted only NEM, the details of the hacking are unknown, and the stock exchange plans to resume work after the restart.
Earlier, president of the NEM.io fund Long Wong told Cryptonews that all stolen funds were transferred to one account, and promised on behalf of NEM.io to help find and return the Crypto currency.
On January 26, representatives of Coincheck announced a stoppage of money turnover: first they brake NEM, and then the rest, except bitkoyna.
