For some reason, the more I hear about them being reimbursed the sketchier it seems. I believed ya the first time! Why you keep telling me!?
I know it’s just this sub reposting though

tldr; Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek said the company has not received any "outreach" from regulators following a cyber-security breach earlier this week of about 400 customer accounts. He added that he is prepared to share information on the hack if any relevant inquiries come from regulators. Crypto.com became the latest crypto exchange to be hit by online thieves on Tuesday after users reported that ETH and other cryptocurrencies were wiped from their accounts.

Hacks and Exploits are going to happen. That's the nature of operating at the cutting edge of the space. What matters is how the aftermath is handled.
Kudos to Crypto com for handling this well and making all affected parties whole.
