The source of attacks on CryptoAve has now been identified. The vulnerabilities created by the heartbleed bug are exactly what was exploited in an attempt to steal user funds.
CryptoAve itself has never been compromised and it is likely that development will speed up now that we no longer have to worry about solving an exploit that never existed in our code.
The exchange will be back soon. We will have a stronger infrastructure and bank level security.
In closing: CryptoAve was never compromised, it was shut down as a precaution and to strengthen defences. We now know the bug that was causing issues is due to the OpenSSL bug and not any of the code or programming language.

Yeah nice find and good work getting the exchange offline so quickly to protect against this exploit. Thanks for all the hard work following this up. Better to be safe than sorry. Looking forward to CAve being back up!
