We at Bitcoin.com do hope that funds are returned to their rightful owners and exchanges incidents such as this cease to exist.
I dont think incidents like this will cease to exist, thanks to human innovation and the massive honeypot incentive that a large exchange gives to every person knowledge of loopholes to attack with. Not just Cryptsy but I think the whole blockchain standard comes into danger when its chucked into one place, we seem to have that problem with bitcoin in general. Its so industralised now and scaled up beyond back room operations that the threat is from itself really. We can call out bad people and avoid them but really this amount of coins or hash power in one place is going to cause problems and losses and upset like we got here.
Its not a one off, thats all Im saying big Vern isnt the sole cause whether you like him or not is irrelevant.
Right this moment Im sure people are looking to replicate this attack elsewhere, does shapeshift avoid this by lining up contracts not holding the funds itself Im not sure
