CoinVoice has learned that Wemix Foundation, a subsidiary Block chain of Wemade, has disclosed a loss of approximately 8.65 million WEMIX Tokens (valued at about 6.22 million US dollars) due to a Hacker attack. Kim Seok-hwan, the CEO, stated that the Hacker is unlikely to be the North Korean organization Lazarus Group, but rather a professional who infiltrated the system by stealing the service monitoring authentication Secret Key of the Non-fungible Token platform Nile. It is reported that the Hacker prepared for this attack for two months, and then made 15 withdrawal attempts through creating abnormal transactions, out of which 13 were successful.

Kim Seok-hwan also revealed that all services of WEMIX are planned to be reopened on Friday and security measures will be upgraded on the new Block chain infrastructure. [Original link]
