On November 21, 2017, the company behind the Bitcoin cryptocurrency "tether" announced a hack resulting in a theft valued at $31,000,000 USD that was widely reported in the media (Bloomberg, CNBC). The question will resolve as "yes" if a credible media outlet (e.g., Bloomberg, Reuters) reports an additional, separate Bitcoin hacking event valued at $10,000,000 or more during the period of interest.
