And they hacking group strikes again, this time it's the Toshiba EU branch.

I wrote about that in my first post and they are not the only one affected, Brenntag was another one that we know about so far but there are more of them because they received 57 payments in that one address.

The whole thing has CIA hack written all over it

It could be there is some political games and bigger things happening behind the scenes, but it's always easy to blame russian everything on evil russian hackers

I feel immense shame whenever I see bitcoin is involved in such illegal activities.

Do you also feel immense shame when dollars and other fiat currencies are involved in illegal activities?
In reality, less than 1% of Bitcoin is used for something like this, and much more fiat money is used for blackmailing and hacking.
Bitcoin is just an asset and it should not be blamed if someone uses it like this, in a same way like gold, dollars or any other asset can't be blamed.
