Might be an inside job and the coindash has tracked the hacker so that person was forced to send it back because his life would be in danger,or he is just testing the vulnerabilities of coindash,or he is just trippin around because he want to try if he can find a way to steal those ethereum,but this is really something new,very unusual because if you steal that amount of ethereum you could live and buy anything you want.

no one will trust you if you do not give a site or video that is clear because many people do not believe in all that people make on the internet. if I do not believe hackers want to return that much money because he will be rich if not return it.
if true hackers want to return the money as much as $ 17 m from the results stolen, the possibility of hackers want to become ordinary people or good people.

Any source for that news ? site that trusted where i can read the news about it ? Cause i dont just trust what everyone said at internet.

This is very important reference before believing any news in internet.
Not all of the news is true because there are so many unresponsible people make fake news for any reason. So believe only trusted news source.

Doesn't sound believeable at all, why would they return it?? must have struck a deal or something. Maybe they stole 20 million, asked to return 17 million for not reporting to the police, 3 mil profit...

Yeah, any statement should be backed with proofs. But I'm really surprised that there are many cases when hackers return stolen crypto... I'm glad that there are a lot of kind and honest people but I wonder what drive them to do it?
Maybe he's afraid that one day someone might hunt him if they figured out his home address and banging to their front door(basically the government authority) or someone that is greedy enough to hunt him. Well, this is just my speculative view as i believe that the truth will always set it free but too many scenarios that i am thinking of why would he suddenly returns it, if the news is true.

Well, i can't find the valid reason if someone would just make a fake news.

Did it already happened in the past? I mean, hackers returning what they hacked?
Sounds funny to me you call them kind and honest when they were hackers at the first place. :)Anyway, I read the article, some people say it could be just a press release, which is not impossible. But, if the "hackers" are really hackers, maybe they just did it to test themselves and show the people what they've got - their hacking skills. I sum it up as hacking just for fun.

I can say they want to get alot of money for sure. If they dont want money then why they do it?
Other reason maybe they are competitor employee who has job to hack their company competitor.

Not sure about that, as you can see there were some scam projects just like ebitz opair and flex coin which stolen more than 25 million dollars. And they were never getting tracked by the way.
To track the hackers it not easy. The fact that with the encryption of SHA and it makes crypto becomes more difficult to be tracked. I just gonna see where that will be going on.

Most likely, high-level hackers have some notions of honor.
If you can steal a million dollars from someone else's wallet at any time, then you can afford to return some of the funds to create a positive image.

This is a great news. I think the hacker just want the exchanger to know that there is a loophole in their system. I advice them to pay attention to their security.

In a shocking turn of events, an anonymous hacker has once again returned stolen ETH tokens to CoinDash – a tool aiming to help users manage, track, analyze, and “get a bird’s eye view” of their crypto assets.
Some hackers specifically hack for experiments, but whether it turns out, such as a security check. But unfortunately there are not many, many simply profit from us using impunity.

There are very few such "knights" at the moment. Most people use their hacking skills for profit, they just crack other people's wallets using various known vulnerabilities and receive money. Such happy stories are now very rare.

is there any proof of this news you shared?
it seems very interesting, someone refuses to be rich,
does the hacker also have fear?
are transactions on the Ethereum network traceable?

This is April fool's day news! There's always a lot of fake news out there today!

The hacker's attack is for the money, after getting the money to return the money, what is the hacker's thinking?

If this news is true then I think its a very good news. Can you provide the source of this news so we can see if the news is correct or not? I think there should be some way to trace these hackers and caught them because these kinds of cases are growing daily.

I do not believe in this story. Why did the hacker wait more than a year? Why just now he decided to return the money? This news looks like a fake.

It's not yet confirmed; this is pretty weird to see someone that already done with a lot of effort to stole the funds and then he was only keeping it and returning it to the owner. Or this is just another way to make another sensation to the public to raise awareness and attention.

There is no Txid to proves it. And then this could be another manipulation even this news has come from the reliable media.
