The hacker just returned 12 1/3 Million additional NXT to BTER.
I am wondering what make him return 20% of what he stole. Did NXT developer threaten to rollback the transaction?
He returned 42 M NXT because BTER made a deal with him and apparently paid him 440 BTC
A good deal for BTER. 42M NXT worth around 1.3M dollars and 440 BTC only worth around 220k dollars.
Still, won't it be cheaper to convince NXT developers to rollback the transaction and threaten to pass the cost back NXT investors?
Unpopular opinion, but i think NXT devs should of been a bigger man here and step up with rollback.
It all depends on the method that was used to steal the coins in the first place, but since NXT is still rather small , it wouldnt be so hard to roll back the transactions.
I would never pay thief to return funds, i would rather put a bounty on his head for the same amount.
