So true. It's rare to see such large amounts get likely lost to those "snatchers". On 2022-07-27 some (not so smart) entity sent 0.9BTC to the "empty string" brainwallet in block 746835 (tx 37e166a1e52e96bcfe535738082e328ef8db56aafd6945d9cad6f2afdb34b4a4) which was very likely claimed by some of those bots who constantly monitor mempool transactions for such brainwallet transactions.

Seriously, how stupid is someone to use SHA256("") or SHA256 of any publicly available data, block hashes included, as private key and believe this is in any way "smart"?
