BitKeep CEO: We managed to trace the addresses used in the theft and some of the stolen funds are frozen

12/28 08:17

BitKeep CEO Kevin issued an open letter saying: As you might know, BitKeep was hacked on Dec 26, just one day after Christmas. We have made some progress so far: We managed to trace the addresses used in the theft and some of the stolen funds are frozen. In this large-scale malicious attack, the hacker exploited and hijacked BitKeep App 7.2.9 APK on our website. With maliciously implanted code, the altered APK led to the leak of user’s private keys and enabled the hacker to move funds. There is no security issue for the BitKeep official app installed via Google Play, iOS App Store and Google chrome. However, if you have downloaded BitKeep 7.2.9 APK on BitKeep website or updated it to this version via website or in the app, I’d like to urge you to download a new app via the official store, generate a new wallet address and move your funds, because there’s a chance that your private key is leaked due to this hijacked APK in question.
