Crypto has a strong reputation as a haven for money laundering, drug sales... So if any of the Mexican/South American drug cartels lost a lot of money Sam and the other top management of those companies could end up dead.

I actually think this blowback is going to hit Sam's parents, who are part of the liberal intelligentsia. Sam himself is unquestionably going to jail or exile.

#18It's tempting to say he did it or inside job, but things never are as obvious as they seem. Why not just quietly siphon off funds from a cold wallet to his personal wallet? Why use a malicious app at all? This leads me to believe it was not an inside job.
