Crypto exchange security takes another hit—this time from within.

Indian exchange CoinDCX confirms an employee was arrested for allegedly orchestrating a $44 million hack. Because nothing says 'trustless' like an inside job.

How it went down:

The suspect exploited backend systems, bypassing multiple security layers. Funds vanished faster than a DeFi rug pull.

Why it matters:

Exchanges keep promising 'institutional-grade security' while nine-figure breaches keep happening. Maybe next time try actual institutions?

The aftermath:

CoinDCX vows to 'make affected users whole'—standard post-hack PR speak that usually means 'we'll print you some IOUs.' Meanwhile, the crypto space shrugs and keeps chasing the next ATH.
