Unocoin is pointing at BitGo's multisig backup, saying it suspects the setup was exploited, according to a breaking alert from Cointelegraph. The exchange raised the alarm publicly rather than staying quiet.
The detail that raises eyebrows: onchain transfers still went through while an account freeze was active, per the alert. A frozen account moving funds onchain is exactly what the freeze was supposed to prevent.
