It's always a pleasure to see when justice is delivered. Such kind hackers like Grant West are the worms of our society and contributes to the reputation loss of bitcoin and cryptos worldwide. Thefts and hacks are always discussed at the forefront whenever potential risk of cryptos are being discussed by the regulatory authorities and such kind of incidents are one of the major roadblocks for cryptos to become a legal tender in many countries. Grant West is just one example of an wasted talent.
