导读:日前，香港数字货币交易所Bitfinex表示，黑客入侵导致大批比特币失窃，随后不久，比特币市场交易价格便大幅缩水超过10%。
The security breach led to the possible theft of bitcoin worth $65m (49m pound).
这一安全漏洞导致了价值6500万美元（约合4900万英镑）的比特币失窃。
Bitfinex told the Reuters news agency on Wednesday that nearly 120,000 bitcoin were stolen from its exchange platform.
Bitfinex在本周三向路透社透露说，大约有12万枚比特币在交易平台上被盗。
All transactions on the virtual exchange have been suspended while the security breach is investigated.
在调查这个安全漏洞时，虚拟交易所的所有交易都被暂停了。
In a statement on its website, Bitfinex said that it was "deeply concerned about the issue and we are committing every resource to try to resolve it".
Bitfinex在其网站上发表了一份声明，表示说“对此次事件严重关切，我们将利用一切资源来解决这个问题”。
The hack is one of the biggest thefts in bitcoin’s history and is being treated as a "major deal" by many in the virtual currency community.
此次黑客入侵是比特币历史上最大的一次失窃事件，虚拟货币社区的许多人都将此次事件当做一场“大交易”。
"Unfortunately, we continue to have vulnerabilities in the form of exchanges and wallets," former Singapore-based bitcoin broker David Moskowitz told the BBC.
新加坡前比特币经纪人戴维·莫斯科维茨对BBC透露说：“不幸的是，我们仍然在交易和存储比特币的形式上存在着弱点。”
"The vulnerabilities almost always occur on the exchange or wallet side and this is an area that continues to need improvement and more secure protocols, no different than when a bank gets robbed."
“这些弱点几乎总是出现在交易或存储的一方，这一领域还需要更多改进和更多的安全协议，和银行被抢没什么两样。”
Securing bitcoin trading platforms has been a key challenge, with hacking and thefts seen as the biggest threats.
保护比特币交易平台是一个非常关键的问题，黑客入侵和盗窃是最大的威胁。
In 2014, the Tokyo-based Mt Gox trading exchange declared bankruptcy when hundreds of millions of dollars in bitcoins vanished or were stolen.
2014年，东京Mt Gox交易所价值数亿美元的比特币资产消失或被盗，该交易所随后宣布破产。
But Mr Moskowitz stressed that in spite of the latest alleged theft "the core protocol is extremely robust and has not been hacked".
但是莫斯科维茨强调说，尽管最近发生了一些盗窃事件，但是比特币的“核心协议十分强大，没有被入侵”。
He said while there would most likely be a price correction in bitcoin, he remained confident that it would continue to be an appealing alternative asset.
他说道，尽管很有可能比特币的价格会被调整，但是他仍然有自信，比特币将会继续成为一个有吸引力的替代资产。
