Magnr "Savings and trust" announced in an email to customers today that it was pausing trading to review it's security measures. (archived) The letter stated:
"In the past 24 hours, Bitfinex has announced that their exchange has been victim of
a security breach resulting in the suspension of activity on their website until
further notice.
As a result, we have placed a temporarily pause on Magnr Trading. During this time,
clients will have the ability to liquidate existing open trades on Bitstamp and
itBit but will not be able to open new trading positions."
While Magnr says they monitor their service 24 hrs daily, users of the platform do not have control of any private cryptographic keys and therefore have little hope of recovering any funds stored therein were the company's servers to experience a breach.
Magwho?
The prototype for the possible cavalcade of failures riding the Buttfunex anal alibi.
Lol remember the "ancient history" from four years ago when Pirate's ponzi floundered and an entire slew of "not exposed to Pirate" "bankers" and assorted financiers went under ?
2012 was a hell of a year. Maybe it is an election cycle thing?
