There's a handful of us that put in hundreds of hours digging up the truth with nary a peep from Paul Vernon, yet you come out of the fuckin' woodwork and broker a deal and get paid for it where we have and will continue to do the search for free.
Again, GO FUCK YOURSELF!
You think I was able to do this without putting in any work? I'm getting paid a bounty because I'm actually able to recover the coins. I haven't been hostile towards you so I don't understand why you've been flaming me constantly. Please refrain from harassing me in the future and use some common sense.
Recovering coins? There is no chance that you could hack hacker after so much time or crack Private key which is impossible. You can "recover" coins only if you are one who took it.
P.Vernon never put any server log data in public or any useful data which could pinpoint hacker location.Why?
Total value of stolen BTC and altocins is 11825 BTC and 4685 BTC obtained from selling stolen altcoins - in total 16510 BTCs
I found BTC wallet where BTCs from stolen altcoins are and put these informations here to the public -
https://www.walletexplorer.com/wallet/1356a64174770337But there are things that I did not put in public yet,because every move of BTC make me closer to truth.Now I will tell it:
Tracing altcoins transactions and BTCs obtained from stolen altcoins I managed to locate that "hacker" is definetely from USA,precisely from East Coast.After further analysis I came to New York as a location.
The thing what really is interesting that some transactions were directly connected with Digital Ocean Data center in New York where Cryptsy has auxilliary servers:
messages.cryptsy.com , IP - 104.236.38.232
So, "recoverer" will not take just 2250 BTC from bounty,but also 4685 BTC from stolen altcoins - total 6935 BTC(42% from 16510 BTC) ~ $ 2.912.700
Plus 1.3 million from big house ~
4.2 millions in total or exactly 10000 BTC - very nice,round numberI think that all this is staged,because perpetuators started to feel big heat,noose became very tight and unpleasant ,so they have no other option than give something back
If the coins get returned, then I think you are correct that it was an inside job and they knew they were going to get caught. Or it's possible that the coins were stolen and that person also knew he would get caught and that Cryptcraker is the thief. It's also possible that they are just playing us and nothing will get returned.
