He is correct. Cryptopia did not get hacked. The Aurum coin network had a 51% attack. This happens when an attacker has more hashrate than the coin network and the attacker uses this to exploit the coin network.
The network nodes confirm that transactions have taken place but the attacker replaces this part of the chain with their privately mined chain which causes it to reject the previously confirmed transaction - resulting in "reversed transactions" and lots of orphan blocks.
I explained it here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-does-a-double-spend-51-attack-work-explanation-and-examples-5035336
It has happened to a number of POW coin networks recently. It occurs when the coin network maintains insufficient network hashrate to protect against such an attack. The attacker didn't "hack" the coin network. Instead they exploited the low Aurum coin network hashrate and effectively took over the Aurum blockchain during the attack.
The attacker controlled over 51% of the hashrate which over-ruled the legitimate publicly mined transactions by the honest miners.
Coin networks can avoid this by ensuring algorithm and reward parameters such to entice sufficient hashrate. They can also implement checkpointing and other technological countermeasures.
When a coin network falls victim to a 51% attack it is neither immutable nor decentralized.
The most notorious recent 51% attack was the one on the bitcoin gold network which resulted in Bitcoin Gold being delisted from Bittrex.
Cryptopia also have an explanation in their knowledge base:

We are pleased to announce support for the upcoming Magnet (MAG) coin swap. MAG is undergoing a coin swap to the PIVX codebase.
All old MAG balances held on Cryptopia by 12 November 2018 will be swapped 1:1 to the new Magnet (MAG).
Please complete any MAG deposits and trades on Cryptopia before 12 November 2018 at 2:00 AM (UTC) for them to be credited and swapped to the new coin. Any transactions after this time may not be credited.
Old MAG transactions will not be supported after 12 November 2018.
Cryptopia will implement the new MAG wallet and credit users with 1 new MAG coin for every 1 old MAG coin once we've completed our swap process. We will provide further updates as they become available.

I have investors miners. Which make deposits in my wallets. I trade on these coins and bring them to btc. These are such snickering uncles. With no place to put money and they buy farms. Only they cannot set them up and they don’t know how to use the exchanges either. And I, in turn, will help with the selection of video cards and the withdrawal of profits. For this, I take my commission. But since the amount of the deposit was equivalent to 27 btc. I promised they would be clean 25 btc. All the above is my commission. They transferred funds and are still waiting for their 25 btc.
Support cryptope, too, has repeatedly said. But from them ignore. I have 2 options. Either return 25 BTC. Or return the deposit back. None of this is done.
The answer from the support every day is the same:
Thank you for waiting patiently. Wait still. and it's all.

So these coins are all newly mined coins ? Which coin ?

Until now, my account has not been unblocked. And since that time, the value of the coin has fallen by 25%. And nobody will return this money to me. It seems to me that they simply do not have such a sum. So by any means they try to keep money at their place and minimize their losses. Account has been locked for 3 weeks. The reasons so far I have not heard. If it is not unblocked by the end of the month, it can be considered a scam exchange.
At the time of the deposit, the equivalent was 27 BTC. At the moment, coins are worth less than 19 BTC.

That sounds terrible. Sorry to sound skeptical but from your post history it is a newbie account exclusively posting on this thread claiming that they froze 27 BTC.
I'd believe it if you posted the transaction from the block explorer here. Am I right in believing that this isn't your only account on bitcointalk ?
What coin ? I asked before. What is the transaction ID ?
It is hard to believe a newbie account that only posts in this thread and sends 27 BTC to an exchange that has a couple of million users and is the only one having trouble and refuses to provide any proof.
Fishy funds more likely. I remember this guy posting here not long ago, then he evaded every question. Why was the account blocked in the first place?

If it is not confirmed then it is not on the blockchain.

Bitcoin Confirmations. Roughly every ten minutes, a new block is created and added to the blockchain through the mining process. This block verifies and records any new transactions. The transactions are then said to have been confirmed by the Bitcoin network.
https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/confirmations/You're choosing to be anal rather than addressing the actual issue: that Cryptopia has allegedly charged a customer a 0.0005 withdrawal fee, but then only paid 0.00000515 to the network.
It does sound odd, I admit. So let's get some proof.
vuli1, did the transaction end up confirmed? Can you post the txid as proof of the fees?
mah, BTC withdraw fee 0.000500 and it take 6h already and counting. 30 blocks passed still 0 confirmation.
but blockchain say fee is 0.00000515 BTC
but blockchain say fee is 0.00000515 BTC
I don't get it. If it has 0 confirmations how does the fee show on the blockchain ?
? Several block explorers show details for unconfirmed transactions... including fees.
