While the attack method remains unclear, the exchange team confirmed the incident and promised further details after completing an investigation and ensuring security improvements.&nbsp;
The exchange website currently displays an error message across all pages.
Operating as an automated crypto exchange without user registration or KYC verification, FixedFloat attracted primarily US-based users and offered Bitcoin transactions via the Lightning Network.&nbsp;
This lack of centralized control and anonymity, though appealing to some, can heighten vulnerability.
