As the price of BTC approaches the $11,000 resistance level, BTC thieves in less than 48 hours have stolen 3503 BTC worth $38.5 million. This is more than the 119 756 BTC stolen in 2016.

This information was disclosed by advanced cryptic analytic tracker Wale Alert, in a series of tweets seen by Nairametrics. The recorded transactions occurred more than 12 times.The biggest movement of tracked stolen BTC was 476.32, while the smallest movement tracked was 2.612703 BTC.

Back story: In 2016, a top official at Bitfinex, in a statement credited to Reuters disclosed that 119,756 Bitcoins were stolen from users’ accounts. To date, the BTC robbers responsible for these heists have only been able to move only 1-2% of the funds from the exchange.

Data obtained from Coinmarketcap shows that the world’s flagship currency is trading very close to the strong resistance level around $11,000 with a market capitalization of about $201 billion.
