Huobi Global cryptocurrency exchange has successfully recovered millions of dollars in funds stolen by a hacker in September, who approached Huobi and negotiated a deal to return the funds. Huobi Global investor and HTX advisor Justin Sun announced on Twitter that $8 million in stolen ether had been successfully recovered, saying the hacker made the "right choice" to accept HTX's offer. Previously, Huobi Global had promised to pay the hacker 5% of the stolen ether as a "white hat reward" to encourage the hacker to return the funds.
