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

HMI👨🏽 (@The_HMI_Guy) reported@CoinLedger I don’t think they have a support team lol. FTX US and Cryptopia.

Denis Haber (@zl_Haber21) reportedIf rumors are true that eToro is shutting down, then what’s up with Cryptopia?

Kamal (@Kamal92424454) reported@pursang20 @Cryptopia_NZ I also 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

🩸Don Kane (@TheDonKane) reportedI started using Cryptopia and probably bought like half the coins listed on that exchange. The problem was alot of these coins weren't supported by the big crypto wallet companies so I had to keep most of them on Cryptopia. Further, I had no clue what counterparty risk was

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.

Barry Zahurance (@barryzed) reportedThere have been a lot of crypto scams. Early on the media proclaimed that it was what criminals used. There have been a lot of collapses. FTX wasn’t all that long ago. Cryptopia in New Zealand filed for bankruptcy. HashFlare in Estonia was a Ponzi scheme. More recently there was the Hawk-tua-girl related rug pull. There have been a lot of rug pulls. In people’s minds it’s all connected to Bitcoin. Saylor talks about the infinite money glitch. People can’t understand how that’s not a house of cards or a Ponzi scheme. There has been so much noise blocking the signal that people just tune it all out. For those of us who can filter out the noise it’s obvious.

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.

🅿️rabhjot (@ThePlZZAGuy) 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.

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

*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.

Ori Al-Sirr (@OriAlSirr) reportedScams (2016–2019): Mostly Ponzi schemes and fake projects (Bitconnect, OneCoin, PlusToken). Mismanagement/Hacks (2014–2019): Weak custody led to catastrophic hacks (Mt. Gox, Cryptopia). Leverage & Risk (2022): A wave of collapses tied to contagion from Terra/LUNA and 3AC, exposing reckless lending practices. Fraud (2022): FTX revealed how lack of transparency and misuse of customer funds can devastate the entire ecosystem. @RichardHeartWin

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
-
walletverse.eth (@Cryptonomys) reported@secretsauce777 The problem is that I do not trust centralized platforms. Did you know that since the platform was hacked cryptopia i stopped using centralized platform It was a hard lesson for me because I lost more than 1.5 million with cryptopia exchange 😶😒

Charlie (@btc_charlie) reported@csin02 @abetrade To be fair: 1) I own 0 BTC that I have access to (9 or so on cryptopia) 2) Mini-brands is just some random ****. Didn't realise they ventured into $BTC. She actually got $BTC and pop-tarts... basically me.

Dilettante Jr (@dilettantejr) reported@debaas **** I lost some LTC and Mothership in Cryptopia, clearly didn't learn my lesson
-
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.

# (@SHR3SHTH) reported@ck_SNARKs It's not the noobs but the people who have been around for ages falling for the same **** that's truly disappointing. Some of these guys are the same people who fell for the ICO scams and lost coins in Cryptopia and other altcoin casinos in 2017/2018 cycle.
