*Sponge* (@StupiditySponge) reported@TuurDemeester Hack, is the same thing right? This was a hack of the system. So this is a new leak that has to be solved. I had trust issue’s with exchanges any ways…. Cryptopia same same. This is just a different hack of the system from within that has to be solved in order to grow trust.

Kaiz 🐂🀄️ (@Kaiz_294) reported[Crypto used to be a much harder game to play] Ansem looks back at the early days of crypto and the risks traders faced before today’s infrastructure existed. “We were getting ******* wrecked trading on Bittrex, trading on Cryptopia.” “You would sometimes send Bitcoin through the exchanges and not even know if it was going to show up.” “In 2013 and 2014 you had to download .exe files to buy the coins.” There were sketchy exchanges, broken UIs, unreliable deposits, and plenty of ways to lose money before even making a trade. EtherDelta could turn a simple order into a costly mistake, while early users sometimes had to download executable files just to access new tokens. Today’s onchain traders deal with bundlers, copy traders, and intense competition. Back then, the infrastructure itself was part of the risk. The market may be more competitive today, but early crypto was survival mode. w/ @blknoiz06

Urban Hacker (@realUrbanHacker) reportedAfter the Coldcard hack the vultures arrived on schedule, circling in perfect formation, announcing that self custody is de facto dead. You've read the posts. If only these poor souls had kept their coins "on an exchange," none of this would have happened. Adults said this out loud, in public, with their real names attached. So let's do the thing nobody circling the corpse wanted to do. Let's look at the data. 🔴 Mt. Gox — 2014 Hot-wallet theft + years of mismanagement → insolvency ~850,000 BTC (~200k later recovered) 🔴 Bitfinex — 2016 Hot wallet breach ~119,756 BTC 🔴 Coincheck — 2018 Hot wallet breach (NEM) ~523M XEM (~USD 530M then) 🔴 Zaif — 2018 Hot wallet breach ~5,966 BTC + other assets (~USD 60M) 🔴 QuadrigaCX — 2018–19 Not a classic hack: founder death + "inaccessible" cold wallets; monitor found big shortfall / suspected fraud ~26,000 BTC + other coins (~CAD 190–250M+) 🔴 Cryptopia — 2019 Hacked, then liquidation (BTC + alts) ~USD 16M+ initially reported 🔴 Binance — 2019 Hot wallet breach 7,000 BTC (~USD 40M — SAFU covered users) 🔴 KuCoin — 2020 Hot wallets breached ~USD 275M mixed tokens 🔴 BitMart — 2021 Hot wallets breached ~USD 150–200M mixed 🔴 FTX / Alameda — 2022 Fraud & insolvency; customer funds misused ~USD 8–10B shortfall 🔴 DMM Bitcoin — 2024 Unauthorized outflow 4,502.9 BTC (~USD 300M+) 🔴 WazirX — 2024 Multisig / custody breach ~USD 230–235M mixed 🔴 Bybit — 2025 Cold-wallet / signer exploit ~401,000 ETH (~USD 1.4–1.5B), not BTC-led Custodial and protocol heists together — centralized exchanges plus DeFi and bridges — run into the tens of billions of dollars over their lifetime at event prices, with single bad years clearing USD 2–3B in hacks alone. That's not counting fraud, insolvency, or the founder who dies with the keys in his head. One Coldcard wave: roughly USD 0.04–0.07B. Do the division. Very rough math puts Coldcard at somewhere between 0.1% and 1% of a single bad year, and comfortably under 1% of lifetime headline losses from exchanges and DeFi combined. It is a rounding error. It is the tip you leave on the bill for everything else that got stolen this decade. And it is being used as an argument to hand your keys back to the same institutions that produced the top of that table. But I'm not going to end on a smug ratio, because something about this genuinely bothers me. The people who lost money here were not degens. They weren't farming yield on a bridge held together with hope and a Discord moderator. They were the careful ones — the people who read the guides, bought the hardware, wrote the words down on steel, and did everything the responsible adults told them to do. Playing it safe is exactly what got them hit. That's the part that stings, and anyone selling you a custodial account off the back of their pain should be treated accordingly. The conclusion doesn't move, though. Verify your entropy, verify your seed on a second implementation, stop trusting single black boxes — and understand that from a strict safety analysis, your funds have never been safer than in self custody.

Bixbite 🥪 (@iambixbite) reported@imgislost @Coinicarus @SamouraiWallet Getting Orange Pilled is a process…. I bought my first Bitcoin in 2017, then got involved in mining, then ‘day trading’ on Bittrex, Binance & Cryptopia (aka gambling on Mcafee tweets)... Then spent some time participating in DAOs on Etherum before doing DevRel for a Bitcoin L2 - that's where i learned about BitVM and ZK which lead me down the privacy rabbit hole…. so yes, i know about Samourai Wallet, but it wasn't until i was 6 years deeps. She’ll get there eventually…. Hopefully with some guidance from the community she can get there quicker. 🧡

#Bitcoin #BTC #OG #Alt #Crypto #ETH #Gold #Altcoi (@CRYPT0N1TE) reportedFor those that don't know, I'm the guy meritted 2nd, Jimlite. But I'm a bad trader, so I just HODL. And I'm not rich because I had no size. Back then we all thought the govt. would shut #Bitcoin down or we would lose it on exchanges (which I did). Cryptorush, Cryptopia, ect.

cynicalaxolotl.eth (@cynicCryptoAxo) reported@Cryptopia_NZ I got another "mail" from your "support". It seems I have no claim because someone stole my funds 5 MONTHS after #Cryptopia was hacked and I lost access. Say: when they where hacked again in May 2019, my stuff was taken. You got to be ******* kidding me. FYI @CryptopiaRescue

Dipz (@Dipz_21) reported@CryptosBatman Dude I bought 25$ worth of that ****, probably in cryptopia or something, and at the bottom was worth like 2$ and sold it, thinking that **** was worthless, it was the best performing alt in 2020-2021 and 1000$ at the bottom would be worth millions

nightcl3rk (@nightcl3rk) reported@kurtwuckertjr I got ripped on QuadrigaCX and Cryptopia. I’m hoping with #BSV I can never have my funds stolen if miners can reverse illicit transactions. The ‘hammer problem’ is always underestimated until you are the victim.

DEBAAS // (@debaas) reportedI have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges.
