They blocked very little and can only do very little. He seems to know enough that I don’t believe he’s scared of them finding his identity

His own explanation is the one I find the most truth in. https://sites.google.com/view/hackersconfession/home/hacker-...

I don't know about this but I agree that he doesn't seem to set out wanting to steal $600mio. Sounds like the typical "hacker" mentality where he's prodding around for security holes and just happened to find one.

I would have loved it if he sent every coin he stole to the burn address as a big fuck you.

Would have loved to see the discussion whether this amount of money would justify a hardfork to revert the theft.

[simonsaidit]

Don’t think it’s possible in this case as this is a bridge between multiple blockchains that they have no control over.

Well, the hack didn't involve an inter-blockchain transfer. It was internal transfers carried out at the same time on ETH, Polygon and BSC networks, so each of them would require a separate hardfork to repair this.
