another bitcoin bandit bites the dust.
I bet he bought an xbox gamertag from the most recent exploit.
These kids really do think the 3 letter agencies arent watching, no matter how many of their close friends get v&.
The blockchain is forever, and the statue of limitations no longer applies.
That verizon/att employee from 2018 will get caught, he will give up an alias, and the feds are interested, now that the coins have value.
and assuming the feds arent dirty (they are), you have 5 years to run. If the fed assigned to your case decides he wants the coin personally, you have 5 monthes.
- paulpauper 5y agolol way too premature to say that. if he gets off easy by being a youth, he can still walk away with tens of millions of dollars. If the rest of the btc cannot be recovered, likely when he is released from jail or custody, assuming he is even convicted, he will still have it. If he is not extradited and charged in the US, then he is pretty much guaranteed to exit with his fortune intact. Canada has pretty lenient justice system.
