Bitfinex Hackmaster Addresses Involvement of Wife and Father In a recent video released from prison, Ilya Lichtenstein, convicted of laundering $4.5 billion stolen in the Bitfinex hack, has asserted that his wife and father were not involved in the crime. This marks Lichtenstein's first public statement since his sentencing to five years. Lichtenstein's Statement Lichtenstein declared, "I planned and executed the Bitfinex hack alone. Accusations implicating my elderly father, who lacks even a computer, are utterly false." He further stated that his wife, Heather Morgan, was unaware of the hack, which occurred before their encounter. "She is a victim of my actions," Lichtenstein said. "I alone am responsible for hacking Bitfinex, stealing, and laundering bitcoin. After serving my sentence, I aim to use my cybersecurity knowledge for good."
