Huh. Nice infographic. I'm actually really surprised the MtGox hack only caused a somewhat 50% decline in price. I definitely expected a bigger drop for some reason. Also with the Bitfinex hack, $654 to $552 was definitely a smaller drop than what I remember.
If I remember correctly about the statistics. Then the mtgox is the impact for the first move in March. Bitcoin the price point is ~ 9k and it goes down very fast within a month and the last fixed threshold is the price ~ 6k6. The second is the hacker attacks on the trading floors in Korea, Bithumb, coinrail is one of them. That made the bitcoin go down very fast in April - May and peak was a scary 5k8 mark.

If you look at the graph, you see that the bigger the exchange, the bigger the drop in the price in the month after the hack. The last two exchanges on that chart, did not even show a drop in the price after the hack and the price even increased. 
I think the amount that was lost, has a bigger influence on the price, because it gets more media attention.
Some of these hacks was not even just bitcoins, but a mix of Alt coins, but it still had a negative impact on the price.

this is scary news and I think the market is unlikely to be cracked and they will react after the market rebounds and this might be a disaster for investors #Credit: https://t.me/whatsoncrypto

I think many people are loosing their faith and trust in crypto and in that exchange, so all the prices are getting dumped. And the bigger exchange gets hacked, the bigger effect is on the market.
I don't remember the price getting to $11k between May and June. Also, exchange hacks aren't the only news airing on the crypto ecosystem during those times, so the market movement isn't dictated by the news of hack alone. However, as of late, the market doesn't react that much to hacks and tend to keep on going no matter the weather, and we could clearly see that the Bithumb hack haven't really made a lot of fuss since the market is already tanking anyway. It's amazing how people learned to not get swept by these types of news and kept on holding despite the massive setback it could have been for the price.
Definetly this causes drop on value of cryptocurrencies and additionally , people do panic sell even at loss. Because of he fear of losing their money, investors will try to panic sell which will cause price reduction.
I do not see a graph by 2017. whether hacking does not occur in 2017? if there is no hacking, that might be the cause of the soaring Bitcoin price!
I really like your chart

I don't think hacks stop bull runs. I think that they just cause a dip in price in the short term. The soaring price in 2017 had nothing to do with hacks AFAIK. I think there was some hacks in 2017, but I can't recall what hacks happened.
It depends on the size of the exchange. Do you remember what happened to Mt.Gox. It was hacked, then it froze withdrawals and acted like it's all fine, and then it went offline causing the longest bear market in bitcoin's history. If a major exchange like Binance got drained of all its coins we'd be hitting lower lows right now and if those lows would happen to be below 3000 USD, we would be kissing bear's ass till 2020.
Thank you for the visual demonstration! In principle, it is quite logical that after the hack the crypto currency is drained and its value is reduced. I hope that soon the possibility of breaking the WHOLE EXCHANGE will be excluded)
As far as cryptocurrency is concern, it is therefore, prone to hackers. It has actually been noticed that whenever a hack news is heard, the price of bitcoin tend to drop drastically, because of its negative impart on investors.
We are glad you liked the info graphic. It means a lot for us the kind word of the crypto community as we are working hard on them. We will be more than glad to receive new ideas...

It reacts with worst case possible attitude!
First of all weak handed catches such news, then they represent it over the forum and in the different blogs in such way that something big happened and start creating the FUD about it.
Rest of the market starts catching up the fire and this goes on and on until it reaches to every corner of the world and world thinks they gonna loose their money over huge dump that will be coming up front.
The Market Dumps!
~The End ~

Nice infographic done, thank you for sharing. I believe the exchange hack should be one of the factors that push Bitcoin price down. Let’s hope there are no more hacks.

I remember the bitfinex one 🤦🏻♀️... I had some btc in btc-e and it was under ddos attack. So the price was falling hard and I didn’t had access to my btc to change for fiat. Those days I was like a kid in a roller coaster 😂
It is absolutely clear that there is always negative impact on the market when there is a hack or even rumor of hack. Some cryptocurrency have not recover from the negative impact of last month hack.
I think the exchange that get hacked must take a quick action after the hacking.
Some exchanges collaborate to stop trading some token to minimize the impact, you can see for example IDEX, Bancor have was stopping
trading pundi x token some days ago because some exchange get hacked.

There are two type of news; first is positive and second is negative. Economic markets like stock market; crypto markete; commodity futures trading market get effected by the news / rumors.
Any negative news will pull down the prices and positive news will push up the prices.
When investors / traders get any positive news they will start buying and opposite will be the action in negative case.
Hacking is a negative news and I am of the belief that the prices will fall in such circumstances.

Thank you for the beautiful graphics. I remember when Coinbase stopped working and was offline for 12 hours.
Bitcoin lost 25 percent during this time.
