The Southeast European Law Enforcement Center (SELEC) published a press release titled “More than 200,000 Bitcoins in Value of 500 Million USD Seized by Bulgarian Authorities”

In short, the Ministry of Finance "has no information on bitcoins confiscated or confiscated in favor of the state." They added that the inspection was carried out at a time when Asen Vassilev was only a caretaker minister. He ordered the NRA and the Customs Agency to seek answers.

In addition to the inspection, by letters dated 11-02-151 dated 05.07.2021 and 03.08.2021, the Minister of Finance requested the Prosecutor General to check whether the Bulgarian state owns 213,519 bitcoins. On August 24, 2021, a response was received from the Deputy Prosecutor General at the Supreme Cassation Prosecutor's Office, stating that the Specialized Prosecutor's Office did not seize and store 213,519 bitcoins, "reads the letter from the Ministry of Finance to us.

Meanwhile, it became clear today that the MP from "Democratic Bulgaria" Ivaylo Mirchev has requested detailed information from Minister Boyko Rashkov about the fate of the alleged bitcoins.

Ivaylo Mirchev wants the Interior Minister to get an answer whether pre-trial proceedings have been instituted, whether an indictment has been filed in court, how many bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies have been seized in the investigation, where bitcoins are stored - online platform / exchange, hot wallet ( wallet on a computer connected to the Internet), on a cold wallet (wallet on a device separate from the computer that does not have an Internet connection) or on other media.

"Do the investigating authorities have the necessary private keys and keywords to recover these private keys in order to dispose of seized bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies, has any evidence been disposed of so far and if so, what order, when and for what reason, are they currently available as evidence in the case and are they available to the prosecutor's office? ”asks Mirchev, who will also expect information from the Minister of Electronic Government Bozhidar Bojanov.

Today I got this in my recommended. 👀

Just by looking at the first page of the post history make me lazy to check all the pages where the first page already starts at Bounty reports. If merit is not implemented then those 16 forum users would already be legendaries. Good thing that there's merits required for ranking up prevents them from increase their rank through posting of bounty reports. Bounty reports here, bounty reports there and bounty reports everywhere  good thing there's mods who will delete useless posts.

Гледам че БГ форума е умрял(както винаги),та си мисля да го посъживя.
Има ли оцелели след сриването на крипто цените през последните няколко дни?
Някой да се е паникьосал и да е продавал?
Как си обяснявате този спад?
Пандемията,инфлацията,международното положение,Федералният резерв?
Очаквате ли мечи пазар през 2022-2023?

Maybe a picture of the beard will gonna help us picture the  your friend situation. 

Also, I think that your friend should update his ID picture quickly because he may face problems at the airport or points where identity verification is more.

Technically that shouldn't be an issue at all.
A cold storage by definition should not be accessible by anyone else remotely or physically, so there shouldn't be any way to use any kind of exploit on it.
Additionally you would use some sort of encryption on your cold storage, whether it is encryption provided by Linux itself (eg. encrypting home folder) or encrypting the wallet file itself (eg. encryption provided by Electrum). That means even gaining access to the data won't help the attacker.

A vulnerability in Polkit's pkexec component identified as CVE-2021-4034 (PwnKit) is present in the default configuration of all major Linux distributions and can be exploited to gain full root privileges on the system, researchers warn today.

CVE-2021-4034 has been named PwnKit and its origin has been tracked to the initial commit of pkexec, more than 12 years ago, meaning that all Polkit versions are affected.

Part of the Polkit open-source application framework that negotiates the interaction between privileged and unprivileged processes, pkexec allows an authorized user to execute commands as another user, doubling as an alternative to sudo.

Bump / Well, let's get started? Who will be the anti-hero this year? since Nullius is inactive

@TheBeardedBaby good health to the little one!

There are 16 such true legends (active in the last 30 days):

Edit: there are ~40 other users with 770+ activity, i.e. potential legendaries.

My first thought was "let's see if there is any post merit worthy". First guy posted exclusively bounty reports and the second one has some posts in Offtopic and a "good project". Disappointing... 

OMG!
At first, I felt bad that Op's purpose of calling out these users has been misconstrued. I was so surprised that even as OP has called out these users, some generous merit sources like fillippone and LoyceV even commented on this thread and even merited some posts here, but have refused to send even 1 merit to any of the users. I was worried that I had to bookmark the users so that if I have smerit I will send to them.
But on a second thought I decided to see their posting histories, I was shocked to my marrows to see only links and no single post created. I have never seen this kind of thing before. No single worthy post to issue merit.
