The problem is that most people tricked into "investing" in such platforms probably don't make anything like a software engineer at Google. This loss hurts them a lot.

#6This might as well be a scam created by the CEO himself. I mean, who in this 'crypto world' would be stupid enough to use the same, previously compromised, password on all his accounts?
P.S. there was a story on reddit (can't find it now unfortunately) about how the attackers tried to deposit the money to Bittrex but luckily someone alerted them and the exchange froze the account. So there is still some hope that funds will be returned.

The attackers gained control of the official website, slack channel, Twitter handle and mailing list. That's even worse than what happened to coindash.
