A Japanese cryptocurrency exchange has claimed it lost more than $400 million in tokens following an alleged hack on its service. Unidentified assailants stole 523 million NEM coins (about $400 million) from the exchange's hot wallet. According to Coincheck, NEM coins are kept on a single-signature hot wallet instead of a more secure multi-signature wallet, and the stolen coins are confirmed to be Coincheck customers.
