Crypto mining provider BIT Mining has revealed in a press release that its mining pool BTC.com had suffered a cyberattack in early December, resulting in a loss of $3 million.
The company didn't go into details on the attack, but noted that "certain digital assets were stolen," including $700,000 owned by the pool's clients, and $2.3 million in owned by BIT Mining.
