Someone is lying. Nitro, ball is in your court. The mother fucker hacker posted alleged email conversations in which Nitro accepted a deal to pay off said mother fucker. Even offered him employment?
Hi ts11111,
Thanks so much for reaching out!
We were definitely being extorted by this person over a period of time in the past - these are old messages. We made these payments to buy time to add the required infrastructure in order to prevent future attacks.
While they did not bloat the article with all of the emails and PMs we provided, this information was already revealed in our public disclosure with Coin Telegraph, which you can read here:

We made the conscious decision to stop paying this extortionist, and we've been incredibly lucky to have the support of the entire bitcoin community during this process.
Thanks for your loyalty and support,
The Nitrogen Team
