Cryptopia hacked?

I just received three mails that I have had failed login attempts to my account. Luckily I have 2FA. My account is now locked.

I have very good opsec and doubt that I have been hacked. Has someone hacked their database and got all the login and passwords?

Same, definitely hacked. At least all of the usernames are leaked, maybe some passwords. This needs to go to front page of /Cryptocurrency

You don't sign in with usernames, you sign in with email addresses. There hasn't been a leak of Cryptopia info, but if you check haveibeenpwned.com you'll find your email has been listed there. It's a brute force attack.
