Coincheck fully refunded losses to investors after the hack

Coincheck quickly sorted out the issue of paying out capital to investors who suffered after the hack at the end of January. As of last Tuesday, all user withdrawal requests that were received before February 11th have been satisfied.

Recall that the attackers managed to withdraw 260,000 NEM, which is equal to $523 million. The exchange promised to return the stolen funds to its clients and kept its promise. Coincheck promises to resume operations soon.

Information about the status of the investigation and innovations in the exchange’s security system was also published on Twitter. Coincheck is going to do everything possible to prevent similar incidents in the future and protect the deposits of its users.

Recall that this week the police managed to find one of the individuals involved in the Coincheck hack. The attacker tried to sell some of the tokens at a 15% discount on the darknet.
