More than $350m has been stolen from crypto exchange Bitget. The theft is the largest crypto hack so far this year. Bitget had noticed "unauthorized transfers" from some of its wallets on Thursday and it "temporarily suspended" customer withdrawals, Gracy Chen, chief executive of the Seychelles-based company, said.

"Withdrawals remain temporarily suspended as a security precaution, not because of any shortfall in funds," Chen told Reuters.
