You’re fine. The GP doesn’t understand. Only 0.00291948 BTC was sent to the hacker wallet. The remainder went to other wallets. The vast majority went back to the person making the transaction (IE nowhere)
- bobbyi_settv 6y agoWhat is the point of someone sending btc back to himself?
- lawn 6y agoThat's just how Bitcoin works. Say you have 1 BTC on an address and you want to send 0.1 to someone, you still need to send all of the money. So wallets "split" the 1 BTC into 0.1 and 0.9 outputs, sending the 0.9 to yourself to another address you control. It's called a change address. Modern wallets do this automatically, but it can be confusing to look at it on a blockchain explorer.

- oarsinsync 6y agoIt’s like paying for a $3 latte with a $50. You need to get your change back.
