The Japanese Crypto Stock Exchange Coincheck, in January, had a total loss of approximately $ 530 million. Compensation for the loss of victims customers will start from today (March 12).
In an article dated March 12, Coincheck announced that on January 26, when the Japanese stock exchange closed, customers with moisture quotas would be credited to their accounts by calculating each moisture quota over 88.549 Japanese yen ($0.83) as planned earlier.
On January 26, Coincheck announced that a total of 523 million pounds were stolen. According to the announced payment plan, users will receive a refund of $420 million.
At a press conference held last Thursday, the company's CEO and COO announced that the repayments will begin this week. With this statement, the company was less relieved of collective lawsuits and months of investigations by the Japanese financial regulatory Authority (FSA) on whether the company had the power to repay such a refund.
At the same time,Coincheck has made a statement,ETH,etc,XRP, LTC, BCH and BTC, such as some of the krypto currencies to trade and customers to begin to pay again, he added. On the other hand, he added that they needed more time to continue the services provided to other assets.
Although the company has made many attempts these days to make things right, a report released today shows that Coincheck may have been hacked weeks before the robbery took place.
According to Nikkei Asia review, the vulnerability to this hack is caused by some kind of malicious software that has entered the internal computer system, as previously confirmed by Coincheck.
A new report from an unidentified source close to the security forces indicates that hackers were sending emails to Coincheck employees from the beginning of January. These e-mails, which contain links to viruses, are leaked into the system when they are opened by employees.
Hackers could have stolen a large amount of moisture by collecting personal keys weeks before the actual robbery. It is very likely that this would have happened since Coincheck had no such tool to detect communication between the external server and itself at the time.
Deficiencies in security measures are one of the main reasons why the FSA investigates the company's system. Coincheck, who was sentenced to a second administrative fine by the institution, also has to present to the institution a plan on how to develop their systems by March 22.
