Liquid Hackers Return Stolen BTC, Refuse to Unfreeze Network
The crypto community has been left reeling after a group of hackers known as Liquid Hackers returned approximately 3,400 BTC to the network's administrators. However, they have retained around $47 million in stolen funds and chosen not to unfreeze the network.
Although the majority of the stolen cryptocurrency has been recovered, the situation remains dire for users who had funds locked up when the Liquid Hackers launched their attack. The hackers gained control of the network's administrator keys and froze user accounts, making it impossible to access or transfer funds.
The return of some of the stolen BTC is seen as a positive development, but experts warn that the situation is far from resolved. The retained $47 million will likely be used by law enforcement agencies to track down the hackers responsible for the attack.
