据美国科技博客Gizmodo报道，自由与加密货币的朋友们，你们有坏消息了。有人黑掉了“丝绸之路（Silk Road）”的复刻版（也就是“丝绸之路 2”），偷了所有人的钱。由于所有钱都是比特币，所以肯定找不回来了。

这个黑市网站叫做Defcon的匿名管理员，用一份情绪化的声明证实了此前被攻击的报道。Defcon认为漏洞在于比特币的“交易展延性”漏洞，这一漏洞导致了本周早些时候发生的一些兑换行为导致交易停止的事件。这个漏洞是非常昂贵的。安全研究人员尼古拉斯·韦弗表示 ，黑客偷走了4474.266比特币，价值约为270万美元。

有人透露了一份来自Defcon的十分伤感的声明：

在写这个声明的时候我还在流汗。

这次攻击是在我们最脆弱的时候发生的。

我作为领导者是失败的，完全被今天的发现惊呆了。

我会与你一同战斗，即便是我们中间那些最贪婪的人。

我们掌握的黑客的信息在下面。要不惜一切代价对这个人进行复仇。

如果你还没有从这段话中理解全部信息的话，我告诉你黑客不仅偷了用户的比特币，还偷了属于这个网站的比特币。“丝绸之路 2”网站会下线几天，为改善以后的交易安全进行一些修改。现在我们可以坐稳了静观比特币价格暴跌，就像以前一样。

Somebody Hacked Into Silk Road 2 and Stole All the Bitcoins

Bad news, you lovers of liberty and cryptocurrency. Somebody just hacked into the resurrected version of the Silk Road (a.k.a. Silk Road 2) and stole everybody's money. And since that money was all in the form of Bitcoin, there's no way to get it back.

The anonymous administrator who goes by Defcon of the black market site confirmed reports of the hack in an emotional announcement. Defcon blamed the breach on the "transaction malleability" bug in Bitcoin that actually caused some exchanges to halt the trade of the cryptocurrency earlier this week. It was an expensive breach, too. According to security researcher Nicholas Weaver, the hacker stole 4474.266 BTC which is worth roughly $2.7 million.

Some revealing—and actually pretty sad—quotes from Defcon's announcement:

I am sweating as I write this.

This attack hit us at the worst possible time.

I have failed you as a leader, and am completely devastated by today's discoveries.

I will fight here by your side, even the greedy bastards amongst us.

The details we have on the hacker are below. Stop at nothing to bring this person to your own definition of justice.

In case, you didn't gather from Defcon's words, the hacker stole not only all of the customers' Bitcoin but also all of the marketplace's Bitcoin. As such, Silk Road 2 will be offline for a couple days and will make some changes to how it handles transactions thereafter. Now we can all sit back and watch the Bitcoin price drop, as it does when things like this happen.
