Mercado Bitcoin Sets Monday Start for Gradual Account Access After Cyber Incident, Pledges to Cover Any Shortfalls

Mercado Bitcoin will begin restoring limited account access on Monday, November 9, starting with read-only functions (login, balance review, statements) via website only. Withdrawals, transfers, and trading will remain offline until each system module completes independent security validation; no firm dates announced for these phases. The platform pledges to cover all customer losses from the November 2 breach ($49.2 million in unauthorized hot wallet transfers) from company funds; $15.2 million in assets has been blocked so far.
