MapleStory's Future

We all know the situation in gMS: hackers and meso buyers everywhere and Nexon doing nothing about it*.
I just read the threads about what happened during eMS anniversary...
I've seen some SS from hacks/exploits in other versions (MSEA and MSChina?) but that was long ago, and in general I have no clue of what happens in other versions other than "kMS doesn't have as much hackers because they ask for SSN".

Now that such "agressive" hacks are released to the public constantly it makes me wonder what's the future of gMS...
I don't mean near future because I doubt Nexon will do anything drastic about it soon. Basicly because they're getting good money and will keep getting good money for who knows how many years and hackers don't seem to affect Nexon's proft.
The way I see it they're going to handle w8 and GK the same (or in a similar) way they did with NexonKiller and nodelay hack few years ago... if they ever do.

But what's the long term future for gMS? Will Nexon let the game die because of hackers or will they step up at some point in time? Will there be a way so they fix the damage done by hackers? Will they find a way to save the game or we just have to wait patiently until the game dies?
I know no one can see the future but I'd like to read some educated guessing on MapleStory's future.

I'm not going to argue if Nexon does anything or not. As far as I know there are still some glitchs, exploits, hacks that are as old as my maplestory accounts. Yeah, there will always be hacks around but I find unbelivable that the top ranks of new servers are filled with hackers, dupers, meso buyers and such. Sure, Nexon might do something but it's not enough. What they did with NexonKiller and nodelay hack back then would be enough for me, if they do more it'd be great. So don't say I'm asking for too much or anything, because I'm not.
