Let's hope the Feds are canny enough to use the blockchain to track the funds until the thieves slip up and make a transaction that enables them to be identified.

i can never understand this. people always say this about Feds tracking the coins but it is not possible if they use a mixer!
i mean coins go in one way and come out in multiple transactions (from different set of addresses) with time interval between them in different sizes, how the hell can they track that?

How in anyway would this stop hackers?? These hackers are most probably not in USA (unless it was an insider job) and they will sell those BTC in their country and start finding their next target. The government institutions need to tighten up their cyber security and start to keep backups as it is just another very powerful virus.

No, it can't happen . Bitcoin is here to stay and it is not the property of any government to control it. Let's hope it stays always and grow .

They can stop people from buying/selling which will make it hard for people to use it.

This is very insane. One should never demand for money, putting keeping human life into struggle. Somehow this time it got settled. Later if such scenario occurs it surely leads bitcoin into some trouble.

Bitcoin is just the payment method involved... I think the root problem is how the ransomware got into the system. Insider job? I thought big organizations should have backup systems to allow a complete system/database restore.

it's all over the net

it's true paying 17,000$ to hackers is more efficient than paying 20,000$ to completely reboot everything from non existing backups.
