South Korean prosecutors, ever vigilant in their quest to outdo the plot twists of a tawdry crime serial, have somehow reclaimed $21.4 million worth of Bitcoin-320.88 BTC, if you’re feeling technical-that vanished from their grasp like a debutante’s virtue at a jazz age party. The digital loot, originally seized from a gambling platform (because of course it was), slipped away in August 2025 when investigators, those paragons of cyber-sophistication, fell victim to a phishing site so convincing it practically winked at them. The thief, a shadowy figure presumably twirling a mustache, later found themselves thwarted by authorities who froze transactions with the bureaucratic efficiency of a DMV clerk on a power trip. Faced with the grim reality of unspendable crypto-a modern-day curse akin to Midas’ touch-the hacker meekly returned the spoils. The mystery of their identity lingers, though, because nothing says “satisfaction guaranteed” like a heist with a postscript of buyer’s remorse.
