BlueBenx Dismisses Staff And Stops Money Transfers After $32 Million Hack

BlueBenx now joins the growing list of cryptocurrency businesses that have fallen short of their lofty yield return promises during this winter’s bear market. The Brazilian cryptocurrency lender offered consumers who invested in cryptocurrencies through several internal earning channels up to 66% returns.

report from the local news board Portal do Bitcoin highlighted that BlueBenx halted all forms of withdrawals after falling victim to an “extremely aggressive” hack.

Investors found it difficult to accept that $32 million had been lost as a result of the attack, according to BlueBenx’s attorney, Assuramaya Kuthumi, given the murky circumstances surrounding the purported breach.

Unidentified investor’s (roughly translated) statements as reported by Portal do Bitcoin:

“I think there’s a high probability of it being a scam because this whole hacker attack story seems like a lot of bullshit, something they invented.”

Investors lack confidence because several cryptocurrency firms, which promise large yields, have previously claimed similar events, concealing their inability to provide consumers with the returns they were promised while freezing money withdrawals.
