It is hilarious that this is still up on the Forbes website right now (my italics): https://www.forbes.com/sites/heathermorgan/?sh=3f3120737f7d https://www.forbes.com/sites/heathermorgan/?sh=3f3120737f7d "When she's not reverse-engineering black markets to think of better ways to combat fraud and cybercrime, she enjoys rapping and designing streetwear fashion."

In case it helps anyone else, I didn't understand this comment and I looked it up and found the person referenced is one of the couple who have just been charged with (stealing) correction, laundering ~4 Bn in bitcoin (Edited based on information in a reply)

  They’ve been charged with conspiring to launder, not stealing, the $4B+ in bitcoin.

    Because that encrypted zip file was probably received from the hacker Ilya bought it from for a million dollars or so, when this hack was only worth $8mm. Just one of many "probably's".

      Obviously, they reverse-engineered the stolen Bitcoin black market.

    It's quite plausible to assume one of them or both did steal it though. It's not very likely that somebody would just give 4bn in bitcoins to a stranger to keep for a while.

  I’m sad they never made the Forbes richest people list. They deserve to be amongst their fellow robber barons.

Went through some of the articles. How are they worse than most of what you see on similar news sites? And why would they have to take any of those down?

I know it's schadenfreude, but the when I read she enjoys rapping I had to find it[1] , and was not disappointed. The lyrics are pretty prophetic, and I've no doubt she made this particular song private to avoid more self-incrimination.
