@coinbureau “special agents obtained access to files within an online account controlled by Lichtenstein. Those files contained the private keys required to access the digital wallet that directly received the funds stolen from Bitfinex” Seed Phrase was online.

@lightcrypto oh bearlight, ide agree with you.. except bitfinex filed with DOJ in 2016 and has been working with them since and well before their other legal probems its stolen property.

Recapitulating: - someone hacked Bitfinex back in 2016 - had 6 years to hide those coins - managed to get caught Wtf is wrong with these people ? They could have used monero atomic swaps, tornado or coinjoin... Unbelievable

@PrestonPysh @Croesus_BTC @bitfinex implying they have other means to access someones private wallet? I've seen other simular cases where it wasnt clear how the DOJ accessed stolen BTC...🤔

Lessons to teach my kids today: 1) Be careful what you post online. Someday you may get caught laundering billions in crypto assets and people will finally view all of your terrible rap videos. 2) NEVER store billions in crypto assets on a cloud wallet. #Bitfinex $btc

@bitfinex So the money was sent to DOJ wallet in 2016 as a payoff that they could "find" at any later date if this BTC thing couldn't be fudded away and now we go down the "let's make a fake CBDC" path knowing the people will reject and push for BTC, which oh the 1% have heap of. Eye roll

The real problem with Tether, is clearly Bitfinex could not run a car wash, let alone billions in cash.

Assuming that Bitfinex will sell 75-80% of all the BTC recovered to buy LEO, at current prices this is let's say 2.5-2.8B USD, while LEO currently has a market cap of 7B and tiny volume. Problem for $BTC is that this is too much and this could cause a significant dip. #Bitfinex

imagine the agent working on the bitfinex case and after six hard years you finally get a good lead, you find the keys on a cloud server, you get the thief’s name, address… …then you click on their tik tok

But in July 2017 Alphabay was seized and shut down. This likely allowed law enforcement to access Alphabay's internal transaction logs, which would enable them to trace the stolen Bitfinex funds through Alphabay. 4/6

It’s hilarious that the Bitfinex hacker was a fake entrepreneur, fake tech investor, fake marketing guru, & terrible rapper. So on brand. @LucJFlynn, we’re gonna have to talk about this on the podcast. Haha

@cobie Can we drone that ****? I guess the head of Bitfinex IT security is finally relieved (or not) to know who bested him lol.

@AKCryptoJV @FollowBitcoin4 @CryptoWhale They can absolutely sell it if bitfinex can't prove that it's theirs in a often times a unreasonable time frame, happened to me when my ATV was stolen when I was out of state. They'll liquidate that **** at a fraction of the current price of BTC too and not think twice. RIP ATV

@satsdart @lightcrypto Way more than one year, but no way the USGov can sell it. Bitfinex will get the coins back. If the USGov had any legal issues with Bitfinex, they wouldn't have settled with Bitfinex for some minor issues last year.

@BlockchainBaby3 @bitfinex Anyone with half a brain wouldn’t post this tweet. Bitfinex customers were compensate for their loss so the BTC belongs to bitfinex. But even if BTC were handed back to customer not much would happen . BTC volume is on average 30B a day

@gananciabitcoin @APompliano When Bitfinex made their customers whole, was it through Tether prints? If so, technically, those BTCs should find their way to Tether’s balance sheet to help stabilize that lingering threat of collapse.
