Michael Blurry (@53A7713173) reported@mertbasarmayan @whodoneit21 Bro i feel it I lost money to cryptopia and ftx. Lost eth and rare Pepe cards to a broken computer when I was newer that ended up being quite a bit. It has definitely been hard and the only edge I’ve ever found was just trading “new tech” chainlink, NFTs, celestia, ai coins, etc

MiG Ⓥ 🔺🎈 (@migmtz81) reported@scottmelker Got burned by cryptopia a few years ago. Was only about $3k worth of **** coins but learned my lessons back then. Ever since then I don’t keep my anything on exchanges.
-
AMLBot (@AMLBotHQ) reported@CryptoCurb @FBI BTC-e was shut down for money laundering. Cryptopia died after a massive hack. Binance? Already went through every possible investigation, paid $4.3B in fines, and operates under U.S. oversight. So no — this isn’t “the next BTC-e.” This is a regulated giant, not a shadow CEX from 2017. Posts like this are pure coordinated FUD)
-
Burbano (@Burban0o) reportedBut in truth, if binance goes down like how cryptopia did, crypto would enter the biggest bear market ever recorded. So let’s just hope the rumors are fake.

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.

Park EunKyu (@Park_EunKyu) reportedJust spent 3 hours of my Sunday - quite literally - sweeping the floor of Doges, on a new #Solana marketplace that has 'rug' written all over it. Send help. Had the same buzzy feeling of flipping random coins on cryptopia all them years ago.

NickTheGrizzly💎 (@NickTheGrizzly) reportedI have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years.

Jeff Asher (@JeffAsher16) reported@PLAYBOY67990 @Ashcryptoreal Take the proof to @Hector099_eth I'm pretty sure he can do something about this since he has been helping others with the same problem with Ftx, Celsius and cryptopia exchange
-
BitPepe ✪ (@BitPepe16) reported@_Crypto__Space_ @Gcbrofaith @DigiByteCoin are you forgetting cryptopia hack? also during past chain forks many lost their access to their coins in the past
-
CryptoTripper (@TheCryptoRipper) reported@crypto_bitlord7 Remember back when Nova shut down. Kind of same reasoning, I would say. Plenty of exchanges had to close.. The one I really miss is cryptopia but that was some inside hack bullshit..
-
tanyel.eth (@tanybro) reportedIf it were a DeFi stable coin, the DAO could say **** it here is everyone's 90 cents. But companies don't do that and just go for bankruptcy protection and funds get locked and so on. For example Cryptopia exchange was hacked and the crooked liquidators stole more than the hacker
-
josh (@basedhusky) reported@ApeDurden Only real ones remember the guy that bought like 3 btc of $KIDS token on Cryptopia at 6 satoshi but there were 0 buy orders in the orderbook so it was impossible to sell it.

Ali Müller (@MullerAlih) reportedmolten metal melts my wallet, but at least i'm in good company cryptopia's ghosts still haunt the server rooms

Fungibles (@fungibIes) reported@gainzy222 we held we held in ICO’s that didn’t happen and in promises made by **** exchange’s (ex: cryptopia) also im still retarted
-
Ben (@0xBenscrypto) reportedOver 300 crypto exchanges have shut down since the launch of Bitcoin in 2009. Now, the funny thing about most of these CEX shutdowns is that most times, not all users get their money back. Some of the biggest CEX collapse by customer impact are: - Mt. Gox (~850,000 BTC lost) - FTX (~$8–11 billion shortfall) - QuadrigaCX (~CAD 215 million) - Cryptopia - FCoin - Hotbit - Bittrex - BTC-e - Cryptsy - Livecoin How many of these exchanges did you ever make use of?

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.

Jessamyn RubinNFT (@Harpree77399632) reportedA crypto exchange gets hacked, causing the exchange to liquidate its assets, thereby making users unable to access their crypto, as was the case with Cryptopia. #DigifinexAirdrop
-
Kamal (@Kamal92424454) reported@WSB_MOB @Cryptopia_NZ I got the mail but can't log in with authentication as error starts coming "Please enter a valid, and current code." even though I am entering correct code. The Grant T doing everything to give a safe passage to Cryptopia and loot it's customers
-
Arnold Davis (@W8X10) reportedIf rumors are true that eToro is shutting down, then what’s up with Cryptopia?
-
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
-
BobbyJuice (@Bobbyjuiceee) reported@Dao888x Yups , just had to buy btc and forget the rest tbh. I lost a few btc and eth in 2017 on cryptopia exchange, till this day never got refunded. **** you @Cryptopia_NZ
-
MBA_Bitcoiner (@MBA_Bitcoiner) reported@Vikingobitcoin9 I bet if you found a good accountant you can track it all down. I get it though. I still have stuff from Cryptopia. Wouldn’t be fun, but counting your taxes with something else other than 0 is ideal.
-
SPORTY (@SPORTYNFT) reported@NomadSnowLeo @finalbosuX Hey Cryptopia what's up? Your content grabbed my attention, had to stick around and show some support.
-
Prash world 🟧⬛ (@Prashkr2103) reported@CeeCee4Akannaya The exchange cryptopia was holding lots of my friends coins it was hacked and closed down subsequently.

Lee (@LauraBronte11) reporteddebaas **** I lost some LTC and Mothership in Cryptopia, clearly didn't learn my lesson
-
digispud 🏴 🐢 (@digispud) reported@BitPaine That's the problem with magic Internet money. It doesn't feel real, so you waste it on crap. I've never done anything as dumb as this, but I did once send a whole bitcoin to Cryptopia that I'll never see again.

Coach V (@ntkcrypto) reported@batshitape Embercoin- had a chance to exit but LTC pairing went down on Cryptopia 😢
