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.
Why they stole if they had to return ? I always find these cases suspicious:
1) I think exchanges may be involved in this. This might be done to get in news and it is sad to see businesses using these cheap tactics to attract more customers.
2) Some possibility is that the hacker was a security researcher and did this to demonstrate the security vulnerability on the site. This is why all exchanges should have a bounty program to reward security researchers. For instance, coinbase has a program on hackerone for this.
