Steemit Starts Post-Hack Account Recovery as Steem Market Cap Tops $380m - Finance Magnates

Photo: Finance MagnatesSteemit, the decentralized social media platform rewarding users for their work with cryptocurrency, has announced that account recovery is now available for affected members following last week’s cyber attack.The hacking was rather minor compared with other attacks on cryptocurrency firms with fewer than 260 accounts compromised, and less than $85,000 worth of Steem stolen. Despite this, the platform has taken a proactive approach, quickly notifying all clients they will be reimbursed in full and contacting relevant legal authorities for help, including the FBI.

Steemit recently experienced both a hack that resulted in the theft of users' funds and a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.Steem is a type of technology that feeds Steemit, a social media website. Members of Steemit earn Steem Power and Steem Dollars, with one Steem Dollar equivalent to one United States Dollar, for posting and curating popular content.On July 14, users of the site began noticing suspicious transactions on their accounts. For instance, one member by the name of "dragonslayer109" noticed US $300 had been transferred from his account to a Bittrex account, an exchange that allows Steemit users to withdraw their Steem Dollars as Bitcoins.
