“Kucoin Security Incident and OPQ Token Swap” by Jason Coppola https://link.medium.com/kPOm7hZn99

Hey Opacity Community, here's a swap update:

All funds have been sent to Kucoin and Mercatox and they are supporting OPCT in the coming week.

Timeline provided by Kucoin:
1. KuCoin will close the trading service for the OPQ/BTC and OPQ/ETH trading pairs at 18:00:00 on October 26, 2020 (UTC+8).

2. To complete the upgrade, KuCoin will take snapshots of users’ OPQ assets at 18:00:00 on October 26, 2020 (UTC+8). After the snapshot, we will convert the OPQ into OPCT at a ratio of 1:1 (1 OPQ = 1 OPCT).

3. KuCoin will open the OPCT deposit service at 18:00:00 on October 28, 2020 (UTC+8).

4. KuCoin will open the trading service for the OPCT/BTC and OPCT/ETH trading pairs and OPCT withdrawal service at 18:00:00 on October 29, 2020 (UTC+8).

What's on the horizon for Opacity 2.0?

Community Safety Announcement:

The only method available to swap your OPQ tokens to OPCT is via our website at www.opacity.io/swap-information. The Opacity team will never contact you to conduct the swap and will never ask for your tokens or other cryptocurrency. The crypto ecosystem is full of scammers and you should always remain diligent when handling your funds. Please contact @FUNKYDRUMMER1 or @ckh4_code if you need direct assistance from the Opacity team.

For all those that have been following Opacity and prior, this is a tremendous milestone. We at Opacity feel vindicated that justice is finally being served.

With this event, a burden has been lifted and we trust the outcome will be welcomed by all those victimized! Special thanks to SDNY for staying the course and coming through for all of us!

Important Announcement: Final Chance for Token Swap!

Availability for the token swap will close on 12/31/20. Be sure to take action and swap your OPQ to OPCT within the next 2 weeks. Visit our website for full instructions.
