TIL I'm the only person on HN who thinks that making 100k in 15 minutes is a pretty great feat.

The transfer happened in fifteen minutes. Unknown how long it took to engineer.

Regardless, you compare things to their alternatives. Here the alternatives are: make much more money, make less money, don't commit crime. The first and last alternative each have logical reasons to recommend them, the middle one doesn't.

If successful and untraceable, yeah I agree with you. (Great in the sense of impressive, of course, not morally laudable.)

But, in fairness, they haven’t actually made it yet though: it’s not cashed out and everyone’s watching the address like a hawk.

Surely finding the vuln and exploiting it in a way that can't be traced back to them took way longer than 15 minutes.
