Hackers reportedly stole around $22 million in digital assets from Indodax, affecting multiple blockchains including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tron, and Optimism.

While the exchange has paused operations for maintenance and assured users their funds are safe, the security firm SlowMist suspects the hack involved Indodax's withdrawal system, giving hackers access to its hot wallet.

Users should remain vigilant as the stolen assets may be obscured through cryptocurrency mixers, although Indodax has sufficient reserves to cover the losses.

Beware of crypto exchange hacks!!
