Maybe someone here have a clue.
Does anyone have idea how Nicehash was hacked?
First you have to know on which IP address is wallet? How they know that?
Second, you need a private key for sending coins from locked wallet. How did they get it?
And then main question, how we can protect our self?
-it was hacked by their engineers key apparently. the attackers gained access, scripted a way to consolidate the hot wallets, and sent it all out
-they know the IPs as there's server logs, but it dont matter, no smart hacker wouldn't be behind layers of phony ips, and this isn't going to any law enforcement big enough to follow Tor trails
- i dont think they got the private key persay, but just root access to an account capable of sending out funds
- how can we protect ourselves? remember what our founder said: "If you don't control the keys, you don't control the coins"
DONT trust your
BTC ANYWHERE but under your own control at all times!
