"Hackers behind one of the biggest ever digital coin heists have now
returned nearly all of the $610 million (roughly Rs. 4,530 crores)-plus
they stole, Poly Network, the cryptocurrency platform targeted earlier this
week by the attack, said on Thursday.

The platform, which was little known before Tuesday's heist, declared the
hacker on Twitter <https://gadgets.ndtv.com/tags/twitter> as a "white hat,"
referring to ethical hackers who generally aim to expose cyber
vulnerabilities, upon the return of the funds".

He returned *most* of the $610 million he stole? And so did he charge a
finder's fee? Lol
