The Wall Street Journal reported that an electronic trading company, btc, had been hacked, stealing $ 70 million worth of fabrication, forcing the company to stop operations for at least 24 hours.
Andrej Scrapa, head of marketing at Nicehash, told the newspaper on Thursday that nearly 4,700 transactions had been stolen from the electronic currency portfolio. Noting that the btc governor, like other bank accounts, has been a target for hackers on the Internet over the past period.
"Clearly, this is a deep concern, and we are working hard to address it in the coming days," the company said in a statement on its Facebook page. The piracy came at a time when the "btc" rocket rise, reaching $ 14 thousand, on Thursday, for the first time.
