Pretty careless almost idiotic to just search with history and sync? about the crimes you are going to commit.

It shows that those guys aren’t really technical, exploiting a blockchain bug sounds like they hacked the system but instead they misused a feature.

They haven’t been even smart enough to understand that the blockchain is for tracing.



> sounds like they hacked the system but instead they misused a feature.

Isn't that quite often the definition of hacking though ?

If they were based on a different country they would've never been caught. And they do seem pretty technical to me, just not entirely thoughtful.


This was a pretty sophisticated attack and deeply technical execution.
