$45 million seems like a modest payday for such hackery.

i would say a bit more than modest.  let's see if they get away clean

It would be easier to get away with Bitcoins. That money is traceable, right?

so are bitcoins...

Sort of. Bitcoins are traceable to an agent but some agents are good at hiding identity.

just as some criminals are good at laundering money?  

Well, right. I guess technology or not, some people are better at hiding than others.

This was an awesome heist.... so much that isn't even public.. lol 

Be careful of 3rd world banks folks!!! 

Don't most banks with international presence have third world exposure?
