BlockBeats News: On May 15th, according to official Coinbase sources, hackers stole less than 1% of active users' personal information by bribing overseas customer service personnel, but did not involve passwords, private keys, or funds. Coinbase refuses to pay $20 million in ransom and sets up a $20 million bounty fund to track down attackers. Affected customers who are deceived into transferring funds due to fraud will receive compensation. The Coinbase Prime account has not been affected and the case is currently being investigated in cooperation with law enforcement agencies. Coinbase estimates that the losses from this ransomware incident will be approximately $180 million to $400 million.
