It never ceases to amaze me how incompetent some high profile criminals are. Encrypting a file is simply too difficult apparently. The entire purpose of crypto is that the exclusive holder of a private key cannot have funds seized. A 15 year old kid probably has better opsec with their crypto wallets than these people. Astonishing really.

yeah I've never seen a crypto investigation that made me impressed with the government's abilities, nothing that surprised me about the utility of OPSEC best practices, only people with weak links and dumb behaviors that are incompatible with doing something criminal.
