So, the entire $XMR move was because of this hacker swapping funds.

The wallets still hold 1000+ $BTC and a lot of $LTC.

Scenarios:

1. Hacker rushes to swap the remaining stolen funds into something else. XMR doesn't really go up, because they choose another asset to swap to. Bearish XMR.

2. Hacker rushes to finish the job and converts the remaining assets into XMR. XMR does another +40%.

3. Funds get frozen. Authorities end up sitting on $280m+ of XMR, no further buying pressure and eventually a dump. Bearish XMR.

4. Small side argument: this is actually bullish for $ZEC. A lot of people likely thought "XMR is stronger, sell ZEC and buy XMR", could that could unwind back the other way?
