I was reading about Cashaa, that was hacked and 336BTC were stolen. But the hacker can't move them right? He will leave footprints. So why should hackers steal them since they can be found? For example if they want to convert them to fiat.
The only way I think you could get by from this felony is to keep them on very long term. So long that it may be forgotten. But still, it may.
Do you really think that this reason will stop them on cashing out those stolen bitcoins? One use of mixers or even trying to break down those coins into several wallets will be already hard to be traced.
As a hacker then of course you would surely go after with big money and converting those to fiat would be no problem.If they can be traced up in the first place then we wont
see any hacking incident on this crypto-space.You dont know much of on the basics in talks do anonymity and how do crypto works.
