timestamp of the last trascaction -> 10:12.

bitstamp down from 10:12.

so they sent the funds to cold storage. And there is no issue I am hoping.

the question here is whose cold storage is that.

They stopped with deposits 3h before last transaction...

doesnt mean anything really, because someone could have sent his coins to the stamp's hacked hot wallet addresses.

in fact, I will send 1 satoshie to my old stamp address right about now just for fun.

To tarmi : Some new transactions can be seen on the "Hack" address. Could you see if some of these satoshis come from your address?

aaand its gone.

my satoshis are gone.

confirmed.

Miners raking it in on these fees dang...

Who knows where this statement was made: http://www.coindesk.com/bitstamp-claims-roughly-19000-btc-lost-hot-wallet-hack/

On their homepage : https://www.bitstamp.net/

No, that still has the old statement. The coindesk article contains a new one from Bitstamps CEO admitting the 19000 BTC are lost.

Maybe through email , try to check because I'm not registered on bitstamp.

Impossible to login on their homepage, you can check that yourself :-)

I can view a statement on their site. It just shows a maintenance page at present with a short statement about the compromised wallet. It's the original statement released, with less information in it than the one in the coindesk article.

24-year-old Nejc Kodrič and only a few years older Damijan Merlak the young man who will be next year probably landed on a scale richest Slovenes Manager magazine. In the past month have earned what is around 5.5 million....

They have enough money to cover this loss.

I just hope they don't spend it all. In this case, I claim this car. Cool

PS.: They have each one car, so second one is still unclaimed. Wink

If it was an RNG attack - then it could be used on their cold storage as well as on their hot wallet. If the attacker can predict the private keys - then the fact that these keys are stored on something detached from the internet does not make any difference.

I think the same , it was not an attack to their how wallet but a problem with the generation of the various addresses.

if one plans to steal big from an exchange like stamp, why would he collect all stolen coins in ONE address? it would be much more confusing to use tons of addresses and keep switching the coins around.

- one or tons of addresses -> it does not matter, it is recorded in blockchain.
- maybe it is only manipulation or it is insider job

"Bitcoin Protocol is so secure guysh!!"

"You just can't use a computer attached the internet, your phone, or any other communication device, a online service, online wallet, or any other 3rd party service in which trust is required, always use MULTI-SIG!!! and 2FA, ESCROW, and make your buyer take a picture with a shoe on his head and ID next to his face (only so he can still default on the loan)!" "Bitcoin is the future, hold onto your hats! Moon ahead!"

-Bitcoin proceeds to crash for 1 straight year, bagholders unite-

"It doesn't count till they sell guysh!" "Look at all them weak hands selling" "Pssh noobs, don't understand the market!"

TL:DR, Yes the protocol is secure, its the idiots around bitcoin that have the problem.

So many people's futures are dependent on the next bitcoin bubble, its almost a self fulfilling prophecy.

And this is why bitcoin is dropping. Totally insecure. Can't use it, only store it. Else its susceptible to hackers

i remember when browsing the internet before windows 3.1 was released and we even knew what a graphical web browser was.
i had a hella time trying to bank in that insecure environment let alone try to buy something on the internet.
hell back in 1990's companies actually thought that adding a DSL modem as your ISP was happen thing to do.
it sure beat the slow 14.4k modem dial-ups which were actually more secure than a DSL modem.
