Couldn't he/she just put them through a mixer?  That's one of the shady/unfortunate things about mixers...

Well are people going to follow them until the end ? Whats the end goal, because I doubt blacklisting them would work. It seems the best possible thing is somehow some data gets left behind somewhere and we find out who is behind this.
So when the person spends or sells them we can bust them..

The coins are more than likely no longer in addresses the hacker controls (he has mixed them)

my first concern was they may try and dump them today. on smaller exchanges or trade into alts, then sell.
or they could just secure in multiple wallets and leave for years. then sell when everyone has 'forgot'

maybe a dump is on way today or they may sell on localbitcoins slowly, who knows

They have to sell it slowly. There's no other way. No one will buy such amount with cash and if they start selling large amounts on any fiat/BTC exchange - that would immediately raise suspicion.

Even if they successfully convert to fiat, there's still a risk of a taxman asking where did you get the ~$5m from, or bank freezing your account etc.

I reckon all the process will take months if not years.

I also think that. What remains is only hope that these thugs commit some slip and commit

it doesn't matter if they are moving, someone owns them so he will move/sell/do whatever he want with them
nothing to be excited about

Can the perpetrators sell them on other exchanges or that will lead to their revelation? I mean follow the bread crumbs.

If they land in some other exchange, I don't think they will help bitstamp trace the seller.
