Mark Sims (@sims248) reported@LuminousBTC @LuminousBTC I went through the Cryptopia exit scam and lost 0.15 BTC it’s brutal. If this happened to you, don’t ignore it. Gather your tx hashes and evidence and reach out to @AutopsyMainnet. They actually analyze on-chain activity and help victims understand what happened and what options remain.

SmileyGnome (@SmileyGnome) reported@MoonOverlord Lost a couple million dogecoin on Cryptopia when they shut down.

digispud 🏴 🐢 (@digispud) reported@BitPaine That's the problem with magic Internet money. It doesn't feel real, so you waste it on crap. I've never done anything as dumb as this, but I did once send a whole bitcoin to Cryptopia that I'll never see again.

EscravosBoi🤍💯 (@SmartMagegen) reported@Mrbankstips After this happened, the few LTC, eth, doge, usdt etc I had on cryptopia exchange was lost too when the site crashed. Things don do me for the crypto space but I no go give up

Sonic (@SonicTheSOLhog) reported@justintrimble I had JUST made a big trade with DOGE as the trading pair when Cryptopia went down. Still had some left, but nowhere near what the forced HODL would have been. 'Tis a classic tale

barney (@barneyxbt) reported@100xChaser bruh what did cryptopia do I miss that site so much
-
C. Duckersonian (@countrybuns_) reported@SigmaSquared_ TVL surges after exchange blowups is contradictory. A bit naive to think that normies in 2025 getting to experience yet another Cryptopia/FTX moment will suddenly restore faith in defi lmao, especially considering how **** this sector has fared in the last year

Ashish Singh (@Ashishknows) reportedI have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years.

Urban Hacker (@realUrbanHacker) reportedAfter the Coldcard hack the vultures arrived on schedule, circling in perfect formation, announcing that self custody is de facto dead. You've read the posts. If only these poor souls had kept their coins "on an exchange," none of this would have happened. Adults said this out loud, in public, with their real names attached. So let's do the thing nobody circling the corpse wanted to do. Let's look at the data. 🔴 Mt. Gox — 2014 Hot-wallet theft + years of mismanagement → insolvency ~850,000 BTC (~200k later recovered) 🔴 Bitfinex — 2016 Hot wallet breach ~119,756 BTC 🔴 Coincheck — 2018 Hot wallet breach (NEM) ~523M XEM (~USD 530M then) 🔴 Zaif — 2018 Hot wallet breach ~5,966 BTC + other assets (~USD 60M) 🔴 QuadrigaCX — 2018–19 Not a classic hack: founder death + "inaccessible" cold wallets; monitor found big shortfall / suspected fraud ~26,000 BTC + other coins (~CAD 190–250M+) 🔴 Cryptopia — 2019 Hacked, then liquidation (BTC + alts) ~USD 16M+ initially reported 🔴 Binance — 2019 Hot wallet breach 7,000 BTC (~USD 40M — SAFU covered users) 🔴 KuCoin — 2020 Hot wallets breached ~USD 275M mixed tokens 🔴 BitMart — 2021 Hot wallets breached ~USD 150–200M mixed 🔴 FTX / Alameda — 2022 Fraud & insolvency; customer funds misused ~USD 8–10B shortfall 🔴 DMM Bitcoin — 2024 Unauthorized outflow 4,502.9 BTC (~USD 300M+) 🔴 WazirX — 2024 Multisig / custody breach ~USD 230–235M mixed 🔴 Bybit — 2025 Cold-wallet / signer exploit ~401,000 ETH (~USD 1.4–1.5B), not BTC-led Custodial and protocol heists together — centralized exchanges plus DeFi and bridges — run into the tens of billions of dollars over their lifetime at event prices, with single bad years clearing USD 2–3B in hacks alone. That's not counting fraud, insolvency, or the founder who dies with the keys in his head. One Coldcard wave: roughly USD 0.04–0.07B. Do the division. Very rough math puts Coldcard at somewhere between 0.1% and 1% of a single bad year, and comfortably under 1% of lifetime headline losses from exchanges and DeFi combined. It is a rounding error. It is the tip you leave on the bill for everything else that got stolen this decade. And it is being used as an argument to hand your keys back to the same institutions that produced the top of that table. But I'm not going to end on a smug ratio, because something about this genuinely bothers me. The people who lost money here were not degens. They weren't farming yield on a bridge held together with hope and a Discord moderator. They were the careful ones — the people who read the guides, bought the hardware, wrote the words down on steel, and did everything the responsible adults told them to do. Playing it safe is exactly what got them hit. That's the part that stings, and anyone selling you a custodial account off the back of their pain should be treated accordingly. The conclusion doesn't move, though. Verify your entropy, verify your seed on a second implementation, stop trusting single black boxes — and understand that from a strict safety analysis, your funds have never been safer than in self custody.

incredibly cool capitulation (@mipmiptwingo) reported@HalloweenIn2008 vividly remember how people rushed to cryptopia, singlehandedly crahsing their servers and stopping new account registrations. people were desperate and offered up to 5 BTC for used accounts there lol and blockfolio went down, so delta was the new kid from the block
-
Dr. Olawale Daniel (@DrOlawaleDaniel) reportedThe only real #Cryptopia platform I am aware of since 2014 is @Cryptopia_NZ and they went down with our funds as they declared bankruptcy or liquidation. So, you people claiming another platform is helping you recover funds or anything, better be careful. Do research!

🚜Whales of Margin🚜 (@WhalesMargin) reportedI did pretty good then it got shut down so I moved into crypto so I could leverage. I mined bitcoin with an ant miner S9 funded my trading accounts. Got wiped out with South Exchange, Cryptopia, and the good ol’ Control Finance(if yk yk). I created a trading strategy that works🧵

Ben (@0xBenscrypto) reportedOver 300 crypto exchanges have shut down since the launch of Bitcoin in 2009. Now, the funny thing about most of these CEX shutdowns is that most times, not all users get their money back. Some of the biggest CEX collapse by customer impact are: - Mt. Gox (~850,000 BTC lost) - FTX (~$8–11 billion shortfall) - QuadrigaCX (~CAD 215 million) - Cryptopia - FCoin - Hotbit - Bittrex - BTC-e - Cryptsy - Livecoin How many of these exchanges did you ever make use of?

Brad (@darb_snurb) reportedWhen did you get into crypto? For me I thought it was Cryptopia but little did I know it was actually 2004-2005 when I jotted down the name Satoshi Nakamoto.

WEBFOOT🐙 (@Webfoot_) reported@hitbtc @notEezzy Intern, I know how to get a transaction hash. Here is the issue. 1. I don't have access to the counterpart Exchange Cryptopia. Why? Cos they were hacked and have stopped operation. 2. I don't have access to the receiving address platform, which is HitBTC. Tell me the Magic.

Louise Ivan (@louiseivan) reportedI LOST 2.3 BTC BECAUSE I WAS LOCKED OUT OF EXCHANGES. Cryptopia and Bittrex both left me locked out of my own coins before. Different years, same script every cycle. BitMEX shuts down September 23. BitMart halts all trading August 26 and closes for good in January. Neither one got hacked. They looked at the numbers, decided the business wasn't worth running, and now every balance sitting on those platforms has a deadline someone else picked. That's the part people keep missing. You don't need a collapse to lose access to your money like FTX. You need a wind-down notice, a compliance review, and a withdrawal queue longer than the window you were given. BitMart is already warning users that withdrawals may get pulled into manual KYC and source-of-funds checks. This is why @RyderWallet exists. 2.3 BTC taught me the lesson, we made it our mission to protect people after we felt the same pain. Move your assets while moving them is still your decision. We are here to help. We are providing 20% off to Ryder One with code SUMMER20.
