That's a great amount as reward to trace the hackers, the easiest thing that can be trace about those hackers is how the stolen BITCOINS are transferred on the blockchain.

It's better if the hackers give up the bitcoin and return it to Bitfinex. Perhaps, they might compensate them than having nothing ;D

Crypto transitions from unknown to valuable.  Although this is indeed time consuming, it also drives adoption rates.  Along with the good, comes the bad.  The crypto industry has fallen prey to several attacks over the years.  Regardless of the size of the attack, large amounts of cryptocurrency have been lost due to this attack.  While the authorities are still investigating certain unsolved hacks, digital currency exchange cryptocurrency has taken a different route to capture the attackers.
