The hacker, who claimed they had never intended to keep the digital assets and had only taken them \u201cfor fun,\u201d agreed, and started to return the stolen gains to a shared crypto wallet the next day.

Tether is in the process of unfreezing those assets, Poly said Monday.<\/p>\n<p>It was unclear if Poly will pursue the case with law enforcement agencies. The hacker had claimed they had only sought to expose a system vulnerability and wished to give Poly security tips in the future. Some skeptics, though, said it was more likely that the hacker found it too difficult to launder the crypto assets, and decided returning them was the safest option.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"byline article__byline\">\n<p>    <span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author mobile-scrim hasMenu\" data-scrim='{\"type\":\"author\",\"header\":\"Mike Murphy\",\"subhead\":\"The Wall Street Journal\",\"list\":[{\"type\":\"link\",\"icon\":\"bio\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/author\/mike-murphy\",\"text\":\"Biography\"},{\"type\":\"link\",\"icon\":\"twitter\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mmmmurf\",\"text\":\"@mmmmurf\"},{\"type\":\"link\",\"icon\":\"email\",\"url\":\"mailto:mmurphy@marketwatch.com\",\"text\":\"mmurphy@marketwatch.com\"}]}' itemscope itemprop=\"author\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<h4 itemprop=\"name\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mike_Murphy\"><\/span>Mike Murphy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
