What about binance and bittrex hacks? Did any of them cause customers to lose coins or only binance and bittrex themselves?
The way I see it, it seems that the regulated exchanges are more safe than the exchanges that are not regulated, or am I wrong? Because from the list we have here, I didn’t see any regulated exchange on the list. I don’t really know for sure, but mainly what I am seeing is exchanges that are not being regulated. Binance is not fully regulated, and it was hacked recently… Coinbase is being regulated and it is very safe and well secured. Even from the way the login works, I haven’t seen any other exchanges that works that way.

Norwegian crypto exchange wants to force users to sell their cryptocurrencies
Quote
The reason for this is that the exchange's platform provider Alphapoint allegedly has been subject to a hacker attack.
The Norwegian crypto exchange Bitcoins Norway announced on Monday night (CEST) that they stop all trading on their platform and that the users’ cryptocurrencies will be sold “as fast as it is practically possible”.

i am yet to access My bitrue account after the news. although i have little money inside it. i doubt if i am affected but this is the second exchange i have an account with that got hacked. cryptopia left with my penny. just little.
Well this is a pity. These exchanges should work on their security more than anything else. This is important to keep the trust of the users restored. It was a shock to see Binance getting hacked as well and that exchange being the leading exchange had been able to control the situation for the users but the rest of the exchange might not have enough funds to do that.

Oh another exchange been hacked.Im not familiar with Bittrue but basing into their tweet
"The hacker used what they learned from this breach to then access the Bitrue hot wallet and move 9.3 million XRP and 2.5 million ADA to different exchanges."
Basing on calculations its about $4M+ of lost funds.I do somehow expect for these exchange hacks specially
when bitcoins price or entire market is soaring high.

Lots of exchanges are hacked. The biggest exchanges like binance can be hacked. For exchange owners, it should be more secure by giving the best and the best antivirus. So that the assets of investors are not easily stolen.
That will not prevent hackers from doing that because these hackers keep getting smarter in doing the action. In addition to the exchange security guarding the assets of its users, we also do not always save assets on exchange accounts because they are prone to hacking.

I was surprised by this list, I was worried that there would be no safe exchange to save crypto assets.
It should be a concern that security is important and users must get a guarantee. I like binance with their guarantee after the Hack case (SAFU).
Hopefully other exchangers will do the same thing with what Binance Exchange does by insuring their exchangers so that if something goes wrong, someone can be responsible for the funds of investors and traders.It should be a concern that security is important and users must get a guarantee. I like binance with their guarantee after the Hack case (SAFU).
Even binance has started hacking several weeks or months ago if I am not mistaken. But indeed saving assets too large on the exchange is quite risky.
Only saving the assets in the exchange isn't recommended but if we didn't do it, we also won't get any profit, right ?
all i can say is that the attack on Mt.Gor exchange might be coming from the same person. this showcase the need for people to avoid abandoning their tokens on exchange. it is not advisable or favourable. get a wallet. whatever you earn from the exchange can be earn on the wallet.
Well, there are reports that most of the hacks are coming from the same groups of people sponsored by the governments of North Korea and Russia, but you know, these are just Western reports. All politics lead to fake news.
I don't even really consider all hacks are legit. I still believe Mt Gox and others were exit scams. But that's just me, I hate trusting people and when you see their faces...
I'm from the West and I've never heard of such claims. Not once. Most hacks seem to get blamed on an unknown hacker. What I'm saying is stop with the us vs them propaganda.

In three years how I got started in cryptocurrency tried about ten different stock exchanges and it seems I was lucky that I did not fall on those that have been hacked, is now in general use Binance and Bittrex
Even though you are lucky, always be careful to secure your assets. Avoid phishing websites, install paid antivirus, try bookmarking websites, and save your password in a safe place.The most important security for our personal wallet is to make use of very strong code that will make it very difficult for hackers to hack. We have some combinations of codes that it will take a hacker over 100 years to be able to crack.
