        Even regular banks can be hacked, this isn't just a crypto issue.

          Seriously, who calls their online banking type site bye bit?

          Having said that, I'll just go ahead and assume their security was barely existent, as per usual. I wonder if their CTO was actually s music teacher too.

            This is the same hacker group that performed the Bangladesh Bank robbery, that attack the almost stole 1 billion, the only reason they got flagged was a typo. They did manage to steal 81 million though. Byebit does seem to have bad security though compared to Bangladesh bank.
