RE: Should the "White Knight" get a finder's fee?

I guess time will show how it unfolds.

I am more concerned about how those funds have been stolen in the first place (i get that part) but i'm even more concerned that it was hacked and stolen again so fast. That might be some technical stuff i am not aware off, but i thought my funds are pretty secure as long as i keep keys to myself. Looks like there are ways to hack it pretty easily given someone possesses the knowledge....

Sort:  

I don't think it was a hack in the traditional sense - I think that the account creators didn't secure their account well.

You meant they did put their active keys on evernote for that account with 23 million steem on it? lol I've read it somewhere it was some exploit from ex-steem witness or something. I can not confirm the source though might be fake info.
