$200
million worth of
cryptocurrency goes missing from BitGrail exchange
Another day, another high-profile
cryptocurrency hack — though in this case, the details are even murkier than usual.*
Italian
cryptocurrency exchange BitGrail announced last Thursday that it's
missing 17
million Nano, a
cryptocurrency worth $11.90 at the time the announcement was made. This means the total value of
missing coins was around $202.3 million.
(The price of Nano has since dropped significantly; the coin is currently trading at about $10.15 according to CoinMarketCap).*
