General Bytes, a Bitcoin ATM manufacturer, is reimbursing its cloud-hosted customers that lost funds in a "security incident" in March that saw its customers' hot wallets accessed. The hack led to at least 56 BTC, worth over $1.5 million at current prices, and 21.82 ETH, $37,000 at current prices, being deposited into wallets connected to the hacker. General Bytes has thoroughly assessed the damages from the hack and has been "working tirelessly" to improve security measures and prevent similar incidents from happening again. The company is encouraging all customers to migrate to a self-hosted server installation and is investing heavily in additional human resources to assist customers in migrating their existing infrastructure.
