Cryptopia Begins Distributing Cryptocurrency to Hack Victims

Cryptopia 开始向黑客受害者分发加密货币

Cryptopia, the defunct cryptocurrency exchange, has initiated the distribution of funds to users impacted by the hack in 2019.

已停业的加密货币交易所 Cryptopia 已开始向 2019 年受黑客攻击影响的用户分配资金。

Grant Thornton, the liquidator handling the distribution, announced on December 20th that it has distributed cryptocurrency to over 10,000 verified account holders.

负责分配的清算人均富会计师事务所 (Grant Thornton) 于 12 月 20 日宣布，已向 10,000 多名经过验证的账户持有人分配了加密货币。

In the past two days, users holding Bitcoin and Dogecoin have received payouts totaling at least 400 million New Zealand dollars (approximately $225 million).

过去两天，持有比特币和狗狗币的用户已收到总计至少 4 亿新西兰元（约合 2.25 亿美元）的付款。

This distribution marks a significant step in Cryptopia's liquidation process, which began with the launch of a claims portal in 2020.

此次分配标志着 Cryptopia 清算过程迈出了重要一步，该清算过程始于 2020 年推出索赔门户。

Grant Thornton confirmed that the initial distributions are part of a larger effort to compensate creditors. The firm will notify account holders about upcoming distribution deadlines.

均富证实，首次分配是补偿债权人的更大努力的一部分。该公司将通知账户持有人即将到来的分配截止日期。

"There may be an additional top-up distribution, allowing account holders to recover up to 100% of their holdings, using unclaimed funds from users who remain unregistered after the cut-off dates," stated Grant Thornton.

Grant Thornton 表示：“可能会进行额外的充值分配，允许账户持有人使用截止日期后仍未注册的用户无人认领的资金来收回最多 100% 的持仓。”

The liquidators urge remaining account holders to complete their registrations to qualify for future payouts. Additional distributions for newly verified users are expected to begin in early 2025.

清算人敦促剩余账户持有人完成注册，以获得未来付款的资格。针对新验证用户的额外分发预计将于 2025 年初开始。

In 2019, Grant Thornton estimated that Cryptopia owed its creditors $4.2 million.

2019 年，致同估计 Cryptopia 欠债权人 420 万美元。

Earlier in 2023, Cryptopia made a significant milestone by launching its token, $TOS, on Gate.io. The token aims to enhance the decentralized gaming space, and its launch was celebrated with an airdrop campaign. The campaign garnered active participation, with over 180,000 missions completed. Community members earned $TOS tokens and gained firsthand experience with Cryptopia's gaming ecosystem.

2023 年初，Cryptopia 在 Gate.io 上推出了其代币 $TOS，取得了一个重要的里程碑。该代币旨在增强去中心化游戏空间，并通过空投活动庆祝其推出。该活动得到了积极参与，已完成超过 180,000 个任务。社区成员获得了 $TOS 代币，并获得了 Cryptopia 游戏生态系统的第一手经验。
