People need to stop with the &#x27;sophisticated attack&quot; shenanigans. No one is going to say &#x27;un-sophisticated attack&quot;, when the reality of it is, it usually boils down to negligence. My bet is on an insider.<p>Interesting in this case is that the CTO &#x2F; Co-Founder&#x27;s son was previously arrested for creating the &quot;Mariposa&quot; bot net and money laundering.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;krebsonsecurity.com&#x2F;tag&#x2F;matjaz-skorjanc&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;krebsonsecurity.com&#x2F;tag&#x2F;matjaz-skorjanc&#x2F;</a> <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bbc.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;technology-25506016" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bbc.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;technology-25506016</a>

&quot;Sophisticated hack&quot; in crypto translates roughly to &quot;we decided our customers&#x27; money was better off in our bank accounts than theirs&quot;.
