Harmony, a US-based cryptocurrency company, says thieves have stolen about کروڑ 100 million worth of digital coins from its key products, and hackers have long targeted the sector.
According to foreign news agency Reuters, Harmony has developed a blockchain for decentralized finance, providing loans and other services that go beyond the traditional way of banking and non-financiable tokens.
The California-based company said the theft affected Horizon Bridge, which transmits cryptocurrencies between different blockchains, and that the software is used for "digital tokens" such as bitcoins and ethers.

He did not immediately respond to requests for comment on social media or via email.
The hackers stole various cryptocurrencies from the Harmony Company, including Ether, Tether and USD Coin, Elpitak said.
