OTOH I couldn't imagine the stress levels of discovering a vulnerability that put an insane amount of digital currency at risk and trying to figure out a private way to warn the owner/manager without tipping off every scumbag inside of every three-letter agency on the planet.

So many bad takes about the whole Liquid situation. Yes, Liquid was stupid to allow such a thing to happen. No, white hat or not shouldn’t have taken funds or kept them. Just because something is easy to steal, doesn’t make theft legal. We shouldn’t mix the morality and legality, two different things. I don’t know what is unclear about actions of a group or individual that claims to be a white hat, they still broke the law. If Liquid offers them an “out of jail card” that is up to them, but I don’t think (IANAL) that the act becomes magically legal.
