Ilya Lichtenstein, who pled guilty last year to charges related to the theft of 120,000 bitcoin from Bitfinex in 2016, made his first public statement from prison. In a video call, he took full responsibility for the hack and asserted that his wife, Heather Reyhan, known as Razzlekhan, was unaware of his actions for years and had no involvement in the heist. Lichtenstein's statement marks a significant moment in the ongoing legal saga surrounding the theft, which has drawn considerable attention since his arrest in 2022.
