Bitcoin News's 5 August summary of two movements at once: Galaxy Research's finding that the largest known theft, given as 1,159 BTC across seven attacker addresses taken in 41 minutes, remained untouched with nothing cashed out or mixed and roughly 600 attacker addresses flagged, set against a smaller attacker's 64 BTC mixing run. Secondary throughout: Galaxy's own published totals are held at theblock-galaxy-total and stackernews-galaxy-updated-total, and the mixing trace is primary at mariusoffchain-2084892387445244196. The figures are the article's attribution of Galaxy, not this archive's arithmetic.
