$1.1 Million in Cryptocurrency to Be Seized From Hacker

UK authorities are attempting to seize more than 900,000 ($1.1 million) in cryptocurrency from a notorious British hacker. The currency will be sold, with the proceeds used to compensate his victims. The hacker, Grant West, pleaded guilty in 2017 to several charges, including conspiracy to defraud, and is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence in the U.K. Authorities say it took investigators over two years to account for most of the cryptocurrency that West collected during his hacking career.”]
