Hacked MapleChange Crypto Platform
Return To ArticleThe multi-day MapleChange epic has continued, with the reportedly “hacked” platform returning to Twitter to consult with its customers, who were left high and dry for multiple hours.
On Sunday morning, reports arose that MapleChange, a lesser-known Canada-based platform, was hacked for a large amount of Bitcoin (BTC), along with a number of altcoins, including Litecoin (LTC), Weycoin (WAE), and over a dozen other crypto assets.
Originally, after conducting a “thorough” internal investigation, the exchange claimed that it would be unable to pay its users back, divulging that “the exchange has to close down, unfortunately. This includes all our social media.” While the first part of the statement is logical, the second comment led many to raise their eyebrows, so to speak, in suspicions that this hack isn’t cut and dried.
