NICEHASH HACKED ! CONFIRMED :(

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Company said in this statement:

"Importantly, our payment system was compromised and the contents of the NiceHash Bitcoin wallet have been stolen. We are working to verify the precise number of BTC taken. Clearly, this is a matter of deep concern and we are working hard to rectify the matter in the coming days. In addition to undertaking our own investigation, the incident has been reported to the relevant authorities and law enforcement and we are co-operating with them as a matter of urgency."

They also suggested to change your online passwords - especially ones connected to nicehash.

If you go to their website, it still has "UNDER MAINTENANCE!" there shown here

There isn't an exact amount yet, but this wallet address has 4,736.42 BTC - worth over $60,000,000.00 USD
Here is the link to this wallet address - https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin/address/1EnJHhq8Jq8vDuZA5ahVh6H4t6jh1mB4rq

Have you used nicehash? I have! I have personally lost a lot of BTC and am very frustrated.

Is there any chance for recovery?

Sort:  

60M USD! FUCK

@ardentheart - yeah. There needs to be an investigation.

Yup sucks for us

We heard it earlier, hoping so much it's juts a rumour. Whatever we were mining from 3 AM this morning (Canada) time, all gone.

Crappy day

😭

@thekitchenfairy - yeah I'm hoping it's all just a bad dream...some people are suggesting it might be done internally
