Bithumb hack : $31 Million Crypto Exchange

Shockingggggg
roughly 35 billion Korean won (around $31 million) in cryptocurrency was stolen by hackers from the exchange Bithumb.

Although the breach may not be as severe as the $530 million hack of the Coincheck exchange earlier this year, the fact that Bithumb now ranks as the sixth biggest trading venue in the world still marks it as a notable, and worrying, incident.

While more details about the heist have surfaced in the hours following the event's confirmation, providing a glimpse into Bithumb's internal operations, some important questions about the hack still remain unansered

This is consecutive second exchange hack in South Korea in last 1 month. And this time its Bithumb which comes under top 10 exchanges in terms of trading volume. Hope Bithumb will take care of their investors and future hacking attacks.
