When an anonymous group calling itself Shadow Brokers put up for auction a collection of data it said it stole from the NSA, the group wrote that it would make the information public if it received the truly absurd “Dr. Evil” sum of one million bitcoins—at current exchange rates, about $576 million. So far, however, it’s achieved a more modest payday: $937.15.
Over twenty-four hours have passed since the Shadow Brokers publicized its auction of a collection of encrypted information it claimed to have obtained from hacking the Equation Group, an elite team of hackers linked last year to the NSA. Shadow Brokers offered the data, which it claims includes a “full state-sponsored toolset” of “cyberweapons,” to the highest bitcoin bidder, with the promise that if the total bids reached a million bitcoins, it would publish the entire dataset.
