On April 5, we detected unauthorized access to a small number of user accounts. The attacker exploited a vulnerability in our password reset flow to gain access and initiate withdrawals. The issue has been patched.

What we've done:

  • The vulnerability has been identified and fixed
  • All user sessions have been invalidated — you will need to log in again and/or reset your password
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is now required for all withdrawals
  • Withdraw email confirmation can no longer be disabled

What you should do:

  • Change your password immediately — choose a strong one
  • Enable 2FA in your profile settings — this is now required to withdraw
  • Review your recent account activity and withdrawal history
  • If you notice any unauthorized activity, contact support immediately

Affected users:
  • We have preliminary identified all affected accounts

If you believe your account was compromised and you have not been contacted, please open a support ticket with the subject
"Security Incident — April 5" and include:
  • Your registered email
  • The coins and approximate amounts withdrawn
  • Any suspicious activity you noticed

We take the security of your funds seriously and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience and trust.
