Liquidated New Zealand cryptocurrency exchange Cryptopia was hacked in February. This followed on from the $30 million stolen in 2019.
The alleged theft happened several months after it was revealed a former employee had been charged with stealing almost $250,000 worth of cryptocurrencies and customer data.” reads the post published by stuff.co.nz.
“Stakenet was alerted that about $62,000 worth of XSN cryptocurrency was being moved from its cold wallet (also known as an offline wallet) on February 1. The wallet, which contained about $2.7m in total, had been dormant since the Cryptopia hack in January 2019.”
At the time of the second hack, the wallet contained around 2.7 million NZD worth of Stakenet’s native token called Stakenet (XSN).
