On Wednesday, South Korea's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Bithumb, revealed that hackers had stolen $32mn worth of assets overnight.

If that sounds bad, it's worth noting that this is the second major hack of a South Korean cryptocurrency exchange within two weeks, and the third major Bithumb hack in the past year.

Understandably, several cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, have tanked.

Here's more on these hacks.
