What happened
MapleChange, based in Canada, announced on Twitter the exchange "sustained a hack" and was investigating the issue. The post also said the exchange had turned off users' accounts temporarily. About refunding its customers, it opened a Discord server (a platform for users to chat) so customers could post there about their missing funds, based on which it would initiate refunds. The exchange's website was down.
