The Wormhole team is offering a $10 million bounty for the return of stolen funds

As in contrast $10 million bounty is almost half of a bounty promised from Saddam Hussein back in day. El Chapo had smaller bounties. Osama Bin Laden had $5 million bounty from information that would lead to arrest. Russian hacker Bogachev that's world's most wanted cyber criminal has only 3 million bounty.
They really want to get these guys.
Today's $10 million and a $10m from 20 years ago have completely different purchasing powers. See the FED balance sheet chart. Right now it is nearly 9 trillion USD. Before 2008 it was under a trillion USD. My point is, $5m from 20 years ago probably have the same purschasing power of today's $50m and it will get even worse. The FDIC will insure every deposit account regardless of their balance. That's insane. Why can't we just let the bad businesses go bankrupt anymore?
