Bter operated as a centralized cryptocurrency exchange during the early altcoin market period.
Bter said 7,170 BTC were stolen from its cold wallet and the platform was temporarily shut down.
Bter reported a major Bitcoin theft in February 2015, one of several incidents in the early exchange-security era.
