Bitfinex Hacker Ilya Lichtenstein Should Serve 5 Years in Prison, DOJ Says

Prosecutors have asked the judge to go harder on Lichtenstein, however, who they argue spent months devising a scheme to gain access to Bitfinex’s systems and carry out his attack. They also point out that, while Lichtenstein has no official criminal history, he “experimented with other hacking and financial fraud activity” beginning as a juvenile. In 2016, before he hacked Bitfinex, Lichtenstein stole approximately $200,000 from another crypto exchange.
