Losing millions in the world of cryptocurrencies is about as easy as snapping your fingers. Ian Balinov - an American investor who left his job at IBM and started fully investing in cryptocurrencies - was also convinced of this. He informed people about exactly how to invest in his lectures and stated on TV that he earned over four million dollars (approx. 84 million crowns) on cryptocurrencies.
However, during his last live explainer where he explained how to "hack the cryptosystem", he became the victim of a hacker attack. "I ended today's live stream because someone hacked me," he tweeted. "I'm not worried about money. I learned a hard lesson. Now I just want the hacker to be caught.” The hacker robbed him of $2 million.
