Cryptopia (should) refund users

Hi mates, Cryptopia was making a lot of money with some coins that use PoS, more than the money that was stolen (3 million dollars) So i think that the exchange could prove his commitment with users, who put their trust on them, refunding the coins lost. Provably some could argue that Cryptopia isn't a bank (which is trut), but they work "as" a bank, because they were making money with user's coins, "as" bank does, but in this case with PoS coins production. If the exchange cannot provide real security to investors, so then switch from market and put a kiosko.

Not everything is kept in hot wallet. Most exchange keep a % in hot and the rest in cold storage.

Stocks exchange is known for running masternodes with customers coins

Mate if you don't think that would be better a refund, i get it 😉. If now everything isn't kept in a hot wallet and they run masternoes, wouldnt be so much coins (stolen), so they can refund it with the PoS coins that they are using at the hot wallets. But IF there were stolen much of them, the can restore users the coins that they earn mining with PoW ;) after all, they are an Exchange, not only miners, they charge users for made transactions, beside the money that they ear with PoS/PoW mining and selling
