According to the exchange, the compromised Deribit hot wallets contained funds in bitcoin, Ethereum and USDC.

At the same time, Deribit noted that the assets of its clients are safe. Depositors' funds were not affected by the attack, and the total damage was liquidated at the expense of their own assets. The company assured that 99% of its clients' funds, in accordance with the internal policy of the exchange, are stored on cold wallets[1].
