US Prosecutors Demand 5-Year Sentence for Mastermind Behind $6B Bitfinex Crypto Heist 💥
It looks like the "Crocodile of Wall Street's" partner in crime, Ilya Lichtenstein, might be trading in his keyboard for handcuffs! Prosecutors want him to serve 5 years for masterminding the $6 billion Bitfinex heist. His wife and accomplice, Heather "Razzlekhan" Morgan, gets 18 months for her rap... and her role in laundering the stolen crypto.
Lichtenstein’s cyber moves shook the crypto world, but prosecutors hope a tough sentence will send a clear message to other would-be hackers: “Mess with the blockchain, and you'll pay the price!" 🕵️♂️💰
Their high-tech tricks included mixing services, NFT shopping, and even Walmart gift cards—because apparently, when you're laundering millions, you still need household essentials! 😅 The sentencing is set for November, and all eyes are on what happens next.
🎥 P.S. Amazon’s making a documentary on this crypto heist!
