💰 The incident at Bithumb, where users were credited with 620 000 phantom BTC for 20 minutes, was caused by an operational error, not fraud, and has nothing to do with the FTX collapse, analysts believe.

Such an architectural problem is typical for all CEX and persists until funds are withdrawn to the blockchain.
