This glitching froze all three wallets in its raw form and could not be trusted to work with such a large amount resting on success. After all, get it wrong, and that wallet could remain locked forever it the RAM was wiped.

That software announced 'Hack the Planet' after three or more hours of pinpointing the exact moment to strike.

But appear it did, and Reich was able to move the $2 million of crypto out of the wallet.
