Big or small amount theft is a theft and it's sad that it happened and add salts to the wound they are now going to be regulated. I feel people should be careful with their coins as they could be on a risk with their coins lying on a exchange and I again wonder if it will be insider hand involved cause this always happens during a price hike, this once again put the role of exchanges under the scanner.

Billions stolen from South Korean Bitcoin exchange
Billions won only counts around $1 million so actual loss is less than a million which might not cause any panic or dump in market.

Bithumb have promised to compensate its users for loss of personal information amounting to $870 per user
This is quite confusing, they have promised to give only $870 for loss of personal information but haven't mentioned anything about how they gonna refund their users for loss of their bitcoins.  Roll Eyes

 With the bitcoin market cap as high as it is now, the market will easily absorb it.

BTC to the moon is inevitable...
1,000,000,000 Won = $875,853.23 = ~330BTC

this is not even in the top 20 exchange hacks in the history of bitcoin Grin
this is more like the amount that some whales lose if they have a bad trading day...
