Server attack update (05/06/2015 0400 AM GMT-5)
Yesterday, GorillaEx was the victim of a successful attack resulting in a significant loss of GorillaTeeth
I am happy to report an update on this quickly evolving situation. Less than 24 hours ago, GorillaEx had an issue that was exploited. We have made contact with the person responsible for this situation and all funds have been recovered. We are happy to annouce that every coin has been returned (minus transaction fees, that we will obviously cover) and the issue that allowed this to happen is being resolved as I type this out
It is a lucky turn of events that the person involved was very professional about the situation, and I hope becomes an asset for us in the future. Everyone involved in the Gorilla branding project acts on a professional level. Nobody was mad that this happened. Everyone involved has handled the situation very calmly and professionally, and I would like to personally thank everyone for the fast (less than 24 hour) resolution. All funds were going to be covered by myself and the GorillaEx team in the worst case scenario, but thankfully all coins have been recovered, so that does not need to happen
We fully understand the gravity of the situation that has just taken place. We asked you to trust us, I vouched for everything, and we let you down. Just please keep in mind this is a very new thing for everyone here and mistakes will happen. In the end, no coins were lost, and a few different issues with GorillaEx have been brought to light and fixed within 24 hours
Thank you to everyone who has helped us test the sites, promote the Gorilla brand, and all the coins involved. We look forward to a future of quickly changing, fast-paced development
