I almost thought either there was a new hack that just happened or there were some developments regarding the old case.

Coinbuddy is posting old news articles just to increase his post count for his signature ad. His account needs to be banned.

Jan 6 (Reuters) - Bitstamp, one of the largest exchanges for trading the digital bitcoin currency, said it has temporarily suspended service after "some" of its "operational wallets were compromised" on Sunday, resulting in loss of about 19,000 bitcoins.

The breach represented "a small fraction" of its total bitcoin reserve and the majority was held in secure offline cold storage systems, Bitstamp posted on its website on Tuesday. ([Suspicious link removed]/1eTIPEt)
