The latest articles are now saying it's +100M $[1] and Justin is now offering a 5% bounty to the hacker[2]
A bit off-topic but am I the only one who remembers very low trading volumes (even after shutting down and relaunching)? According to CoinGecko, the exchange now has ~500M/24h. I find that very hard to believe for an exchange that you barely see any mention of anymore.

There is a rumour spreading on twitter that Poloniex wallet has been drained of at least 50+ million USD and counting.

So far there is no official confirmation but few minutes ago Poloniex announced that their wallet has been disabled for the "maintenance" so it might be that something dodgy has been going on.
edit: Just Sun confirmed that Poloniex has been indeed hacked.

Our wallet has been disabled for maintenance. We will update this thread once the wallet has been re-enabled.
