The deluge of many hacking and scamming stories happening in the cryptocurrency industry continues and there seems to be no end to this curse...victimizing as many people and platforms as possible. I am sad to learn of this almost 1 million dollar exploit as hackers are really getting so creative and always ahead of the curve in doing their business...surely getting to be a multi-billion dark business that benefitted many people behind the screens. Now, since the stolen ETH were sent to Tornado mixer...am really wondering if the said assets were frozen.
