Founder Sheldon Xia confirmed the breach on X, with on-chain analysis reportedly tying it to the larger Mercado Bitcoin attack BitMart stopped trading in August.

Founder Sheldon Xia confirmed the breach in a post on X the following day, describing it as a small-scale incident involving a limited amount of stolen funds. The timing matters.
