The hack involved unauthorized access likely through a compromised private key, which is essential for accessing DMM's Bitcoin wallets.

This resulted in a large outflow of Bitcoin and forced the exchange to suspend services to prevent further losses.

DMM plans to compensate users by acquiring the stolen Bitcoin with help from affiliated companies.

Beware of compromised private key!!
