Hacker reveals how he cracked open a locked crypto wallet and returned $2 million to its owner.
Hack the Planet and unlock $2 million of lost cryptocurrency
This glitching froze all three wallets in its raw form and could not be trusted to work with such a large amount resting on success. After all, get it wrong, and that wallet could remain locked forever it the RAM was wiped. This didn't deter a skilled hacker such as Kingpin, though; he persevered and uncovered a vulnerability that meant the wallet PIN and key were copied to RAM during the wallet power-on phase.
Kingpin coded some software that would do this, still risky, it has to be said, procedure. That software announced 'Hack the Planet' after three or more hours of pinpointing the exact moment to strike. When the program was finally let loose on Reich's wallet for real, it took three and a half tense hours before that message, made famous in the Hackers movie, appeared. But appear it did, and Reich was able to move the $2 million of crypto out of the wallet.
