They got hacked again? Didn’t they got hacked just a few months ago? If this is true then there is a serious problem with the security of CMC, after all we all know that hackers have all the time in the world and they can dedicate monts or even years to a single hack.

There was a hack and the database was stolen and that is what the hackers did earlier, right now what we saw was a system malfunction as far as i understand and they rebooted their servers back and it is back to normal. The major problem that happened was that majority of the exchanges take the coinmarketcap feed and it created a huge mess and i wonder anyone sold at a loss in DEX.

Nothing is unhackable on this world on which it would really be just normal that everything would be messing up since most of exchange platforms do really rely with CMC in terms of market prices.

The problem wasnt really that long that hadnt been fixed but it was fixed that as fast as they can.It is just people do really overreacts on how much money that they do have in their ports
considering those digits are really out of this world.lol

Even myself get shocked that im already rich with those numbers i do have. hahaha

Never used to sign in on coinmarketcap so its not really going to affect me but people who used to sign up have to be careful because their passwords might be compromised so better change the password and also the email password or anywhere if you had the same password. Prepare yourself for phishing attack through your email at any time.

It is because of this that it is important to always use a different password for each one of our accounts, I know that some people like to use a master password for many accounts and save themselves time and that effort that way.

But when we see something like this then it is important to always be on our guards as hackers are very skilled individuals and if they get access to your email then they will most likely try use the same credentials to get access to any account that is linked to that email, and if it is the same then you could lose whatever coins you happen to have on that account.

Yeah, looks like it:

Maybe it's a window to the future Wink

I am more interested in who took the number 1 spot as in the picture Bitcoin is already ranked at number 2.

I missed that glitch I could have taken a screenshot of everything is in it and post in to my GC. LOL. .
if in case that would be the price in the future, I guess we should start saving even 0.1 btc now.

This was very interesting part of life when we have too many members in list of Billionaire's after hack of this Coinmarketcap, but sadly I missed this opportunity, and now it's back to normal. This was a hack which is already confirmed by company officials but still very funny part as we have price of bitcoin on this level then surly we have some very long list of billionaire's in this community instead of any other place around the world.
Elon Musk surely going to feel jealousy why he has Dogecoin instead of Bitcoin which is now having worth which no one have even in dream. Grin

LOL, don't think we are smarter than Elon Musk, he surely held bitcoin as well but he is just playing DOGE for short-term profits. It will never happen that we will be billionaires and we will surpass Elon in the number list, hahaha. Man, we only become rich because of the glitch or hack, but let that inspire us to continue purusing our goal in the future.

CMC is hacked ?

Yes, they confirmed that they got hacked again and from what I read on Twitter this recent hack also lead to the leak of email addresses of their users which is bad for the top crypto price tracking site to experience the same issue twice in a year.

They got hacked again? Didn’t they got hacked just a few months ago? If this is true then there is a serious problem with the security of CMC, after all we all know that hackers have all the time in the world and they can dedicate monts or even years to a single hack.

However if CMC can be hacked so often it means they have not really improved their security since the last hack, so people need to begin to use throwaway emails to register there if they do not want to receive emails asking them for money or links to all kind of scams.

Yes, they got hacked again, and is either their security is not secure as we believe, or is just a role of human errors that lead to the attack. Recently, there's a lot of unbelievable happening to every platform owned by Binance, today a forum user makes a BTC withdrawal to the current network and Binance sent the transaction to the wrong network.
I think they need to be careful or they are going to lose their credibility.

Recently, there has been a lot of news about the CMC hack, and many people suddenly got rich in their wallets, but it turned out to be the work of hackers who deliberately scrambled CMC. If this is not the first time this has happened, then we have to be careful with our accounts, they could infiltrate our emails and spread phishing emails, which can harm ourselves if followed.

It's is the most funny this that I seen before some days. Coinmarket cal is hacked and due to any bug in the system prices of coins are showing very very high. But now, everything is normal. There is a bug is the system. But developers found this bug and fix this bug in the system. I also have millions of dollars in my trust wallet.

This is not the first time CMC has been hacked, compared to the recent API price volatility for visibility, it is more serious than being hacked to reveal more than 3M users' email addresses. I think these unfortunate incidents are becoming more risky when related attacks from Bitmart, Accendex, etc. are causing psychological symptoms that make the market heavy. Lol, seriously to say these incidents shouldn't be.
We have the right to joke but it's really more serious

I do not think that CMC ever got "hacked" and I just feel like this was a simple bug in their code that they fixed and that's it. I mean there have been some other bugs in their code before and I get that, but that doesn't change the fact that they are not hacked, it is just a small problem with their code. Whenever they want to change something there is always a risk that they could end up with something broken while changing something else.

This is true in games, it is true for every website, it is always true when we are talking about coding basically, whenever you want to change something you could break something else in the system. But I really doubt that they were ever hacked at all, nobody is stupid enough to hack into a website and just change the prices and leave, what did they even gain from that?

CMC is hacked ? Just work up and see i have more money than elon musk in my wallet .

1 Bitcoin = 799,988,888,678

LOL, when the CMC error, I was surprised to see that I have so much money. I thought I had become a new rich man. Cheesy

however, it's very clear that a bug occurred in CMC, and whether it was hacked or not, but now CMC is back to normal, and the repairs made by CZ and his team are also very fast.

Oh really? I didn’t get to see when that happened. So does that mean that since there are some exchanges who get their data on prices of cryptocurrencies and market caps, they’re all going to be affected at the time this thing happened? Which means that the price of bitcoin must have likely increased on these exchanges?

Although I know that wouldn’t be a problem because if it happened, all these exchanges would quickly lock down or prevent any further trading on their platform. Some of these hackers are quite funny and they like to create unnecessary scenes on the Internet. Why would anyone be hacking coinmarketcap.com just to pump the price of Bitcoin up? So, I’m guessing that they might have done it for fun?

I don't know what will happen to the market if hackers manage to hack into the binance exchange and share all the stolen asset to every wallet they find along the way.

They already hacked Binance sometime back and Binance reimbursed their customers after sometime. Hacks like these are pretty common in the crypto world.

It wouldn't hurt anyone if you believe that you are rich within an hour. The sudden pump of adrenaline inside your body is immersurable. I wonder if someone jumped out of happiness the moment he saw it. Lol.

even one of my altcoins shows so much money than I ever imagine, I thought it's really showing the correct amount but when I check the exchange the price was still the same. Well the visual that one of my altcoins gave me like a false present in this christmas, funny enough to make me smiling Cheesy

I thought that they were fixed already, again there's another problem that I've encountered with them and it's no data showing. But upon refresh, it seems to be normal.

It didn't take long for the coin market cap platform to return to normal and now there are no problem.

Hacking can be the thing that most people fear the most because it involves money and asset. I don't know what will happen to the market if hackers manage to hack into the binance exchange and share all the stolen asset to every wallet they find along the way. That's ridiculous, but the coin market cap hack has become yet another proof that nothing is truly safe in this space. Some people find it a joke because they enjoy this unique fact on their wallet, getting rich overnight which is called the prank of December.

I don't think there's that much for hackers to hack for CMC. Well, they can take the information and data that they've taken for each of the project that's listed on their platform.
But thinking about hacking cmc, it's a different thing from hacking binance as these two are different platform. It's just that Binance acquired CMC and took the ownership.
