@aso118. Coincheck needs to close and shut up. The people who own and run the site have no right to be operating anything that involves holding other people's money, either cryptocurrencies or fiat.
I reckon the investigators should concentrate on the fraud or the inside job angle. I cannot believe they had the kind of vulnerability that was so easy to exploit. The developers of the exchange must be so stupid or placed the vulnerability on purpose.

Coincheck doesn't need a recovery plan; it needs better security. A recovery plan is fine for dealing with the current hack, but exchanges need to buck up to minimize the chances of hacks occurring again. These kind of public mentions of recovery plain are more of a PR exercise, to ensure that customers don't desert the platform.
