“The thief is currently attempting to hide a stash of at least 96,000 Bitcoins (about $100 million), the pair said in a conversation on Reddit. The two Reddit users, ‘SheepReloaded2’ and ‘NodManOut’ have become heroes on a subreddit dedicated to tracking the thief. But there is just one problem (for the thief): His haul is so huge it sticks out like a sore thumb whenever he tries to launder the money. And his pursuers believe he will be unable to cash out a sum that large without revealing himself. ‘He has 1% of the world’s bitcoins. Its hard to clean and sell more than 4 or 5 btc at a time,’ SheepReloaded2 says.”
