in #cryptocurrency • 6 years ago

The saga of the hacked New Zealand-based cryptocurrency exchange, Cryptopia, doesn’t seem to end. Just a week after the exchange entered the liquidation process, over 30,000 ETH stolen from Cryptopia in January was transferred to an unknown wallet.

As confirmed by WhaleAlert, a tracker of large cryptocurrency-related transactions, the transfer occurred at 01:43:57 UTC on 20 May 2019. The exact amount in question was 30,790 ETH, valued at $7.74 million, at press time.cloudy-1866581_960_720-e1558331675109.jpg

The Whale Alert tweet read,

“30,790 #ETH (7,740,465 USD) transferred from Cryptopia Hack to unknown wallet”

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANY DEPOSITS TO CRYPTOPIA.”
