The theft of hundreds of cryptocurrency miners in Iceland has led to a series of arrests amid an ongoing investigation.

The Associated Press reports that as many as 600 miners - which have yet to be recovered - were stolen during four separate incidents in December and January.

Eleven people, including a security worker, have been arrested in connection with the investigation into what has been called the "Big Bitcoin Heist." Two of those arrested remain in custody after a Reykjanes District Court ruling, though it is unclear what role they allegedly played in the heists.
