Bitfinex was just recently again suspected of being hacked ... here, along the way, I found some older (2023) article about "hackers" from 2016:
https://www.coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2023/08/04/did-razzlekhans-husband-really-hack-bitfinex/
The U.S. Department of Justice did not charge Morgan and Lichtenstein, who Morgan sometimes affectionately referred to as “Dutchie,” with the hack itself, only with attempts to launder the stolen funds.
After Lichtenstein and Morgan’s arrests, there were still many unanswered questions as to who actually committed the initial hack. One theory was that Lichtenstein and Morgan may have purchased keys to the stolen bitcoin from the original hacker at a discount, or were holding and laundering it on behalf of a third party.
It looks like someone dipped them in it. A proper hacker would somehow convert it all to XMR, and then slowly, inconspicuously and quietly enjoy it (under a stolen identity).
