Coincheck, a major cryptocurrency trading exchange in Tokyo, has been hacked into and has lost about 58 billion yen ($534 million) worth of virtual money, national broadcaster NHK reported on Friday. Coincheck posted on its website on Friday afternoon that it had suspended withdrawals of almost all cryptocurrencies. The exchange has already reported the incident to the police and to Japan’s Financial Services Agency, NHK said. In 2014, Tokyo-based Mt. Gox, which once handled 80 percent of the world’s bitcoin trades, filed for bankruptcy after losing some 850,000 bitcoins - then worth around half a billion U.S. dollars - and $28 million in cash from its bank accounts. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-japan-cryptocurrency/tokyo-based-cryptocurrency-exchange-hacked-losing-530-million-nhk-idUSKBN1FF29C lol

Almost all withdrawals are stopped, I wonder who gets to withdrawal. And why the gently caress does auntraceable non governmental libertarian currency contact the drat police?

Everything is valueless. We all assign value based off of supply and demand. I demand bitcoin a whole lot and have none, so it should be worth at least 1 girlfriend.

orange sky posted:https://twitter.com/hackerfantastic/status/956998119866150912 It's actually the other way around. The machines are mining Bitcoin because they were easy to hack. Installing a miner is one of the most common malicious payloads.

I feel like "never going to zero" is a really low bar. I mean I can take a shovel and grab a wheelbarrow of dirt and that will also have nonzero vale.

Khorne posted:I get that MTGOX is an acronym for it. I disagree with using Mt. Gox as the acronym, though. Calling it Mt. Gox is just giving some legitimacy to something that was like baby's first php website with more security flaws than my first attempt at making a php website when I was 13. if u think a website name has any bearing on legitimacy welp

Ask him if he considered taking out a personal loan to buy even more tron coins, and if not why not I mean if they're guaranteed to increase by 200000% then that totally beats the interest rate on any loan and since it's guaranteed he'd be a fool to not talk to Jimmy the Loan Shark

Wouldn't the amount you'd need to decelerate be far less than what's needed for a "straight" dive at the sun?
