The most popular Chinese Bitcoin exchange BTER announced that it has been hacked on Valentine’s Day. 7,170 Bitcoin cryptocurrency was stolen from the company’s “cold wallets,” a way of storing the digital currency offline. BTER Bitcoin Exchange is now offering a bounty of 720 BTC roughly $170,000 to whoever can retrieve the stolen currency back. The company says it will arrange withdrawals of unaffected funds at a later date. This is the second major Bitcoin hack in past two months.
