Dear cryptocurrency friends, another big hacker attack! This time it was Indodax, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in Indonesia, that lost $157 million! This reminds me of the nightmare of Mt. Gox's collapse in 2014 and the Bitfinex theft in 2016. History always repeats itself, but have we really learned our lesson?

Let’s analyze this incident in depth:

1. Severity of the security breach
This attack exposed the fatal weakness of centralized exchanges. Think about it, if even the largest exchange in Indonesia can be hacked, can other exchanges be spared? It's like a bank vault being pried open, who would dare to deposit money in it?

2. Are customer funds really safe?
Indodax claims that customer funds are safe, but how credible is this statement? Recalling the QuadrigaCX incident in 2019, the founder of the exchange "died unexpectedly" and $190 million of user funds disappeared. Is Indodax's promise this time just to delay time?

3. A blow to market confidence
Every hacker attack is a heavy blow to the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem. After the Mt. Gox incident, the price of Bitcoin plummeted by nearly 50%. Will the Indodax incident trigger a new round of selling?

4. Opportunities of decentralized exchanges
The security issues of centralized exchanges may drive more users to turn to decentralized exchanges (DEX). Think about it, if your funds are always in your own wallet, how can hackers steal them? This may be a new opportunity for DEXs such as Uniswap and SushiSwap.

5. Increased regulatory pressure
Such incidents often attract the attention of regulators. Remember that after the KuCoin hack in 2020, the Monetary Authority of Singapore strengthened its supervision of exchanges. After the Indodax incident, will the regulatory policies in Indonesia and even the world be tightened?

6. Improvement of user security awareness
The phrase "Not your keys, not your coins" rings particularly harsh right now. Maybe it's time to move your coins to a hardware wallet? Or at least spread them out across multiple exchanges?

Summary: This Indodax incident once again sounded the alarm. I suggest that everyone:

1. Don't put all your eggs in one basket

2. Consider using a hardware wallet

3. Pay close attention to the exchange’s security measures

4. Be wary of exchanges’ promises
