> quit his job, wait a month, go to a coffee shop with a hoodie on, boot into whonix, connect to the internet with a 4g dongle, run a few lines of code, and get $600 million dollars. Think again. In the wild wild west that is cryptocurrency the first thing people assume is an inside job. People with a lot of money and a cut-throat ethic will send death threats to your front door merely for small bugs you accidentally commited to github or for a governance dispute on a forum where you posted pseudonymously. If you dare steal money as an insider you had better make sure you know how to use it to quickly get high-end personal security for you, your family, and friends. This of course simultaneously outs you as guilty. Any hack occurs and you are immediately woken up in the middle of the night to be interrogated by people you've never seen before let alone heard of, stomping through your apartment. Your life becomes a movie. Angry vicious actors with few scruples and long memories will loudly and expensively hunt for you for the rest of your life so you can make them whole. LEOs aren't even your biggest concern at that point. Being an insider or former insider after a large hack sucks whether or not you're guilty.
