I wonder if they run a Java stack and were vulnerable to log4j.

Bug in CMC, presumably. Coinbase Pro has it at $48,273. Y!Finance has it at $32,402.18, down 30%, but they source their data from CMC.

The only price that matters is what you personally buy/sell at.

I think were witnissing a major hack/breakdown of the space.

Wouldnt be surprised to see a big crash now.

Seems like hackers found a way to manipulate the rates. Let's see if they found a way to get their ill gotten gains off of the many platforms affected by this.

Dont use CMC. Coingecko is more reliable.
