      tldr; Ilya Lichtenstein, the hacker behind the 2016 Bitfinex breach that stole nearly 120,000 BTC, has been released early from federal prison after serving about one year of a five-year sentence. His release was granted under the First Step Act, a law signed by Donald Trump in 2018 that allows sentence reductions for non-violent offenders who complete rehabilitation programs. Critics argue that such early releases weaken deterrence for crypto crimes, while supporters emphasize rehabilitation and proportional sentencing.

      Thats why Bitcoin is the GOAT, smart people will dedicate time to figuring out how to steal it, as the ROI is amazing with insignificant consequences.

      This isn’t really a crypto thing though is it. The law is concerning people who commit non violent crimes and complete rehabilitation courses. He could have stolen Pokémon cards and got out under this law.

      One law for the rich, another for the poors-

      And if you steal $10B then you become rich, right?
