  • The hacker leaked it's identity (source)
  • Then the identity leak were used to find it's crypto-accounts such as binance, where he deposited amounts correlating with the investigations (source)

Of course. "Law enforcement" does not have the time, budget, or expertise to catch someone who does not leak their identity.

Maybe in Finland but law enforcement budgets in major US cities are one of their largest expenses.

Consider New York City, for example. They have fuck you money. And, yes, they do spend enormous amounts of it to terrorize its people.
