ShapeShift Thief Begins to Move Stolen Bitcoin

The Bitcoin stolen from cryptocurrency exchange ShapeShift has begun to move.
In March of 2016, a hacker, aided by a rogue employee, stole more than $230,000 worth of cryptocurrency from ShapeShift. Most of it has not been recovered, and the perpetrator has not yet been identified.
Erik Voorhees, CEO of ShapeShift, kept the general public appraised as to the situation during and after the hacking incident.
