Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely check out some of those documentaries. This dude still seems exceptionally ballsey stealing from law enforcement because both they're going to be watching the receiving wallet(s) and transactions like a hawk, and due to all the coverage, a lot of other people will be as well.
