#CryptoCrime | #Bitcoin | #BlockchainMystery

Back in 2016, crypto history was rewritten when Bitfinex, one of the world’s top crypto exchanges, was hacked — and a mind-blowing 119,754 BTC vanished overnight! 😱💻

Fast forward to 2022, and in a plot twist straight out of a Netflix series, authorities arrested an NYC couple — Heather Morgan (aka Razzlekhan, the “Crocodile of Wall Street” 🐊🎤) and her husband, Ilya Lichtenstein — for laundering the stolen billions over years!

How did they get caught? 👀
Investigators followed the on-chain trail of the stolen BTC, which had been dormant for years but suddenly began moving through mixers and gift card purchases 🧾. Despite all their tricks, blockchain doesn’t lie 🔍💡.

By the time they were busted, the value of the stolen BTC had ballooned to over $4.5 BILLION 💸 — making it the largest financial seizure in US history! 🇺🇸

Even the wildest cyber criminals can’t outrun on-chain transparency. The blockchain remembers everything. 🧠🔗
