it is not about back up. it is about that the hacker stole ALL the information stored on Bitstamp's server.

well, maybe you don't care about your personal information(you should because it is about your life, money) but there are many others who do....Smiley


What are you talking about? They stole hot wallet funds nothing more afaik.

how did they stole the "hot wallet" funds? did they guess the password? Smiley

I don't think Bitstamp will explain exactly how they did it. Maybe a combination of malware, inside informations and weak procedures.
The potential amount to steal is so big they could have invest money to get a chance to steal by buying up informations or coming to the bitstamp offices to steal the money.

agree with you.
malware = access to all the information including customer's details.

Their clients will receive a direct impact very soon. they have to change their passwords for emails, Bitstamp account, Bitcoin, etc.
Too bad they cannot change their passports, utility bills, bank accounts. Identity theft was the most prevalent problem plaguing consumers in 2014.
Well, sooner or later we will see, i personaly belive the person was so excited they took the coins and ran.
Also i don't think it was malware, well who knows.

These persons are not SO excited. It's their "job" Smiley

Of course, 5 MIL is a VERY high amount but if there is more than 3-4 persons they will want more Smiley
I doubt it was more than 1 person, wich hacker cooperates with others lol, makes the risk higher.

And for what would they need customer infos when they got away with 19k coins? lol

for getting more funds, of course..and they will.
The peoples are greedy and also they want to make more if they are more than 5-6 hackers. The girls are expensive these days Smiley

Also, a Mercedes S class is 120K + a nice house is over 500K + other expenses...and you will see that the funds will not be enough to live Smiley)

They just changed the servers.

You are wrong. They changed their hot wallet to use multi-sig. Everyone withdrawing can see this and it has already been reported multiple times.


The bug was/IS in their platform. It doesn't matter how many signatures they are using. Smiley


Wow , you're dumb as a rock arent you?

Always assume your platform is compromised. What matters is what data can be stolen....., meaningless data? Mutisig wallet would allow them using a third device to sign tx.


You are smart, I admit that. Please do not read further. Smiley

If you think that the users details(passports, user accounts, utility bills, addresses, bank accounts) are meaningless data, it ok. You are the smart one and you know better. Smiley


Keep proving everyone that you're the dumbest of all here?

What makes you think such data is stored online? Yes you can submit those data online, it does not mean they will be stored online once they're processed. You got dumber everytime you post dont you?


Please try to learn a little bit about how the data bases are working. Your language shows that you have a "Bronx" school....but you still have to time to do it, grandpa.... Smiley

Bitstamp has databases which are online. Each of their clients has an account which contains name, address, email, bank account, etc....so, everything MUST be online otherwise you won't be able to login. These data bases were compromised too, so all the Bitstamp's clients must be worried about their personal details.

I am sure that you won't understand what i am saying, so I will give you some examples to learn from them.

It is not a shame to do it. It is a "shame" to poses as a smart guy when you are not ... Smiley

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/biggest-data-breaches,news-19083.html

When a "financial" website is hacked, ALL the details are compromised. The hacker stole the Bitstamp' funds for now because this was his main target BUT he had access to ALL the Bitstamp databases.

I posted on here almost a year ago that bitstamp was just a government honeypot and that it was only a matter a time before they ran off with people's coins.

Like 99% of the time - I was right.
