LTC and BTC now removed from my "virtual" balance. And now I get eventually refunded in market prices from Jan14 - how overly generous!

From https://cryptonews.com/news/hacked-cryptopia-plans-compensation-scheme-3540.htm:

Quote

In February, the company said that "worst case 9.4% of our total holdings was stolen."

Quote

The exchange further said that “CLM is not a coin,” and that it cannot be traded yet. However, it supposedly represents the user’s loss in New Zealand dollar at the time of the hacking.

The haircut I currently see in my balance is ~21% (not amounting that i.e. LTC price doubled meantime, so I lost rather some >40%).

I expected not to get back anything from Cryptopia and so far, they really haven't disappointed me wrt this.

I don't know, but maybe we can at least expect a detailed and complete postmortem analysis on what happened, but I guess the guys are currently busy with cutting hairs of mio of customers...

WARNING: Fake Twitter Account that impersonates Cryptopia
(I know there has been a lot of warnings about this, but this account can really fool some of Cryptopia users.)

Uses same Name, Profile Picture, Banner (it's not in good quality). The only difference in username is that it uses 2 underscores and an extra i which might be missed at first glance.

Code:

@Cryptiopia__NZ
https://twitter.com/Cryptiopia__NZ

It also retweets the tweets from the Official twitter account of Cryptopia:

And actively replying to Cryptopia users who are replying on Official Cryptopia Account tweets:

I've reported the account on Twitter (selected "They’re pretending to be me or someone else" as issue). If you still see the account, please report it too and provide the Official username of Cryptopia. Thanks!

Edit: just saw that it was mentioned here as well, I wonder why the account has not been taken down by Twitter until now. Please report.

Update --> And we've won:

0.3 Eth converted to 51 CLM???
Oh also some BTC and LTC???

Could it be that 1 CLM = 1$?
Well I guess it will depend if the overall coin prices go higher or lower.

I don't remember many hack cases and how were they handled, but I think I know how it goes...
Whenever there's a hack on the top of the prices, the companies refund their users in cryptocoins.
Whenever there's a hack on the bottom of the prices, the companies refund their users in fiat based on the date of the hack.

I don't expect Cryptopia's case to be different.

I think the CLM coins or tokens are for just temporary. And maybe after doing all their internal research or investigation, they will refund in same coins in which they lost.
From what we are seeing they are handling and updating the situation very good

Not a broken record.
I am a broke customer.
Someone stole all my coins 2 moons back, you claim, no proof given.
Where's me chicken?

No you're right making 20x-50x off 100% of $14M is total nonsense.
Like $Billion of nonsense.

No sunk cost even. Just $14M in I.O>U. shit tokens.
No bargaining this is the deal muppets.
LOL!
the Billion $ Haircut!

What's that stench!?
smells like ...
>> 2017 sell high customer funds run fractional reserve SCAM
>> steal BTC via double-spend SCAM ... old'malability line ... cover 2018 withdraws ... opps! still short
>> buy low SCAM HACK ... jan2019
>> issue finex ious
>> off Scot free +$1B ... 2022

HAIRCUTS FREE HAIRCUTS!
43.1986% LTC was lost in the January 2019 event.
14.0489% BTC was lost in the January 2019 event.

pays CLaiMs @ $27/ltc

BTC and LTC lost too? i thought only ETH and some tokens.

of course the "scam hack" will not be complete without the most valuable crypto-> BTC and a sprinkle of LTC on top Grin

Any official announcement, where they mentioned they will refund stolen funds?

They have enough fund from "listing Fees" to refund users lost fund. Cheesy

Seems like their official letter about the stolen coins is finally being sent to users.
They'll update users' accounts with "withdraws" that represent the amounts stolen and then "deposits" of something they call "Cryptopia Loss Marker(CLM)".
How this CLM will be used is unclear to me.

I would like people to think about this carefully, since all eyes on cryptopia now...

let us call this a SCAM HACK for the meantime while we may come up with a better word for this in the future.

SCAM HACK can be done in three ways

1.) exit scam...runaway like cryptsy's big vern

2.) sell high SCAM HACK..remember nicehash? hack occurred december 2017 BTC peak price.
   -> ever wondered that they decided to sell your BTC's at peak price and let you mine there for the "reimbursement plan" for months/years?
   pricks didn't even buy low and refund users with BTC, instead they let you grind and sweat to mine those BTC's back, users lost time, profit and effort
hehe

3.) buy low SCAM HACK..cryptopia, hack occured january 2019 a potential bottom price of BTC..will pay users in "fiat value" in january 2019 price
   -> is cryptopia pulling this kind of shit?...it kind of reeks here

why SCAM HACK people when business is good? (for items number 2 and 3) ....GREED, business is not enough, they want more and they think they can get away with this SCAM HACK since they are "paying back" users...and they get to keep the business and keep profiting, wise ass pricks.

How about you give me untradeable/unwithdrawable claim checks at least worth the value on the date you informed me of your losses.

In reality generating token CLM-btc & another for CLM-ltc is equitable.

Update 2 :

Source : https://twitter.com/Cryptopia_NZ/status/1107476639116484609

I Received that email, just a few hours ago, does it means my coins are affected too? I have to read that email first but I am very curious to know. Sad

They are working for this,
"If you held balances in coins that were lost in the event you will start to see Withdraws on your account for those coins. The TXID for the withdraw will not exist on the network but will detail how the coin was impacted in the event. For each withdraw you will also see a subsequent deposit of Cryptopia Loss Marker(CLM), the TXID for this will also not exist on a network but will detail the coin it represents a loss for. CLM is not a coin, it can't be traded as yet, it is just a number in the database that represents the loss for each coin for each user in $NZD at the time of the event. There are still steps to take to ensure we are taking a legal path toward reimbursement."
From mail received.

Trading has now resumed on 100% secured wallets. Which coins are 100% secured can be found via https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/CoinInfo marked as "In maintenance" with status "Currency 100% secured, Withdrawal and Deposits offline until new hot wallets are ready"

Any specific date given? When we can start withdrawing or depositing coins?

"we are hoping to achieve this by the end of the month."

Is that for all coins that are 100% secured already, or for a select few?
