honestly, the vulnerability was probably already there and there was a symbiosis with the person. Rules for rulers, there are various keyholders in your empire. This company wasn't following any best practices, so no reason to think they have crypto security best practices internally.

this person absolutely knows that they can kick leadership when they're down and that all blame will go to the leadership

it doesn't require being an "apologist" for leadership to see this vulnerability. Council and compliance all resigned, the ceo resigned. Any semblance of checks are gone and any rogue developer can use their keys on anything, rumor now is that an app update went out turning them into malware.

its equally as plausible as just a cringeworthy vendetta of spiraling founders, dumber things have happened in crypto. smart things have too, I’m leaving towards a smart thing
