Bithumb hacked; clients may have lost ethereum

Fellow Steemians,

I just read a news that the cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb has been hacked leading to the loss of a yet undetermined amounts of ethereum and bitcoin. Bithumb is one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges and the security breach is an unfortunate reminder that clients should not leave large amounts of currency on exchanges.

The news also stated that Bithumb may refund its clients which might restore confidence and customer trust.

Let's hope for the best!
