Department of Justice sets up website to collect statements from victims of the Bitfinex hack

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has set up a website to collect information on statements from those affected by the 2016 Bitfinex hack, with the aim of providing potential victims with the opportunity to speak out about the impact of Ilya Lichathan and his wife Heather Morgan's criminal actions on them. Despite the Department of Justice's position that there are no victims of a convicted crime under the Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA), the department is sending this notice to the public to ensure that anyone who may have been harmed by the defendant's actions is heard. This includes affected Bitfinex account holders.
Previously, it was reported that the US prosecutors temporarily believed that the only compensation that met the identity of the victims in the 2016 Bitfinex hacking case was Bitfinex. (Decrypt)
