Our teams have identified that on June 22, 2024, a cyber attack occurred that led to unauthorized withdrawals from our platform. Only a portion of the balances in the hot wallets of 10 cryptocurrencies were affected by this cyber attack, and the majority of the assets held in our cold wallets remain secure.BtcTurk's financial strength far exceeds the amounts affected by this attack, and user assets will not be impacted by these losses.Our teams are conducting detailed investigations into the matter. Additionally, we have contacted official authorities. As a precaution, cryptocurrency deposit and withdrawal operations have been suspended and will be reopened as soon as our work is completed. You can follow the latest status of transactions at https://status.btcturk.com.

Does this mean that the majority of their assets are held in cold storage, and none of those were affected? Or, that most of the assets that were in cold storage were unaffected, implying some that were in cold storage were affected?

Good question. I read it like the former, but it could be the latter. This was translated from Turkish so it could be the translation's fault.

I assume they meant the former. That’s the reasonable expectation with the assets being held cold. But to me, it reads like the latter. It’s probably a translation issue

Another unfortunate lesson in why people should get coins off of exchanges.
