Zonda биржа раскрыла 4500 адресов холодных кошельков BTC, из-за непередачи приватных ключей средства не могут быть использованы

Deep Tide TechFlow news, April 16, reported by Cointelegraph, Poland’s cryptocurrency exchange Zonda is facing a withdrawal crisis. Current CEO Przemysław Kral released a video statement, publicly disclosing a cold wallet address holding approximately 4,503 BTC (currently valued at about $334 million), and stated that the private key for this wallet was never transferred during the company’s handover process. Kral said the private key should have been handed over by Zonda founder and former CEO Sylwester Suszek, who has been missing since March 2022.

Kral denied allegations of fund embezzlement and stated that Suszek’s disappearance itself proves his innocence. Previously, blockchain platform Recoveris published an analysis report indicating that Zonda’s hot wallet balance had significantly decreased, suspected of insolvency, triggering a large-scale withdrawal request—Zonda typically processes about 100,000 withdrawal requests annually, but around April 6, within a few hours, received over 25,000 requests. Kral stated that the company will take legal action against related false accusations and pledged to fulfill its obligations to customers’ funds.
