Yup and don't use any dynamic languages for the ICO announcement site. Just write it in raw HTML/CSS that way it reduces another attack vector into your site by not executing any dynamic code.

It really depends how they were hacked. From what I read someone hacked their FTP server was hacked.

There are many thing you can do, but nothing is certain...
Some examples:
- You should minimize the interfaces to your server as much as possible.
- You should consider publishing the address before the sale.
- You should lock your DNS settings.
