Bitmain's Server Infrastructure Hacked, Possible User Data Theft! Change Your Passwords Folks!
Bitmain announced this morning that their systems had been compromised by an unknown party, stemming fears that user data such as emails and passwords may have been attained by the hackers. It's been advised that any user on their sites change their account password immediately to protect against unauthorized entry and funds being stolen.
Since the launch of the Bitmain S1 miners a few years back the company has grown to become the imdustry leader in ASIC Bitcoin mining gear. It's not completely known at this time what the hackers were targeting or what exactly they got their hands on.
1st attack against ASIC to take the network back?
maybe a competitor looking to steal plans..? I've no idea to be honest.
Probably some neckbeard breaking shit on the interwebs between jerk off sessions.
This is why I avoid keeping my coins in exchanges like the plague
Very cruel deeds from hackers, hopefully we can avoid hacker attacks.

lmao. It wasn't me who hacked them... I'm just alerting my fellow STEEM users to make sure no one gets robbed.
Ya right bb. Congrats on your hax!
With so many hacks happening, a major concern for all first time entrants is security of their digital assets in the crypto world. The steps involved in properly securing ones' information is not something that can be adopted by non technical users......anyone know if there is some work ongoing to make the security part simple??
This is crazy !! Ther are so many hackers these days trying to take over , we can't we all just be happy ?!
Thank you Kyle , for a witness update
It's hard to say what a email/password list stolen from a big company is worth.. A lot I imagine in the right hands.
Millions.. I can only imagine 💰💰💰
