what's the point of even stealing crypto anyway? it's all publicly accessible on the blockchain. the victim will just report the theft to brokerages/exchanges, who will just freeze the money if it ever touches them. the victim will also just report it to law enforcement who will just track down the thief & keys, or just have the protocol send the money to the owner. so if you steal crypto you basically can't offramp it or probably even spend it anywhere unless you p2p with other undesirables, if you're lucky and fast enough

Meh he got wrecked because he didn't stay disciplined in key management.

He encrypted his Bitcoin keys with a pgp key and kept the Bitcoin keys on a server which is a "hot" device

He assumed his pgp would never be compromised but it was back in November when his server was compromised and instead of redoing everything he ASSUMED he got the hackers programs deleted.

He deleted 3 programs but there must have been more installed.

So he got too confident and you can see it in my pic I add, he was all "turn yourself in, I'm so powerful" and it backfired miraculous.

Really sad for him but it happens when you're not humble

He better have bigger plans than @fbi halp me

I think he got wrecked for real because this event destroyed his reputation.
He was a multimillionaire asking for donations, got wrecked on basic key management, got his pgp key taken (should be kicked out of core repo), etc.
Captial gains tax is only 15% this strategy isn't good for only 3.5m

It kinda is cold storage
It's his own private server, therefore only him has acces to it if of course he disconect the server.
Then it has encrypted PGP on it, I have no idea how the hacker bypassed the encryption, that's the biggest question

But really, I dont even think he got hacked, aas anons above said it's probably some sort of psyop for some or two reasons.

If he used a hardware wallet the only way to be pwn'd like that is if your seed/mnemonic gets compromised (guess that's what happened) or if your hardware thing got compromised (seems unlikely since his pgp keys got compromised too and he hasn't said he lost it, and glowniggers won't interdict someone for just 200 BTC)
I'd guess he stored everything in plaintext on some server, or decrypted on said server, which he apparently doesn't even own (or owns on someone's else land/datacenter)
Pre-2020 I would think he's lying but nowadays I'd believe him to be that retarded

He's no regular TLM-attending TradCath. LukeJr is that extra step of bipolar who belies that the Catholic Church has never erred and supports imposing the death penalty on all kinds of heretics, including those who make public proclamations against the infallibility of the Pope. Of course, only his fringe separatist sect numbering in the thousands is the "True Catholic Church™" and the chair of St. Peter is vacant, so him claiming there is no Pope is true and he doesn't technically support executing himself.
As for his views on libertarianism, the aforementioned punishment should be administered by a just philosopher-king unaccountable to the public in a theocratic dictatorship that replaces elections. The dictator would jail everyone who publicly disagreed about the True Faith, impose a 0% tax rate because taxes are theft, and legalize chattel slavery (because, again, the Church has never erred and it allowed slavery during the Middle Ages).
