The crypto assets that were stolen were approximately 60 Bitcoin (BTC), 350 Ethereum (ETH), and 10 million Wimic.
The amount was about 220,000 Tether (USDT) for WEMIX. Piatek said, "Thanks to timely reports and cooperation from domestic and international institutions, we have found that many of the illegally transferred virtual currencies have not yet been converted into cash.
"We have been able to confirm this through on-chain data," he said, adding, "Our employees, who had taken pride in our record of zero hacks or financial incidents, felt a sense of shock, emptiness, and confusion as a result of this incident.
However, the entire company arrived early in the morning on the weekend and is working day and night, with cooperation from agencies both in Korea and abroad, to do everything in its power to resolve the case."
