Heather Morgan, also known as “Razzlekhan,” expressed her gratitude to former U.S. President Donald Trump on X after securing an early release from prison. Morgan, convicted for her role in laundering billions in Bitcoin stolen from Bitfinex, posted her thanks shortly after the news broke this week.
Morgan and her husband, Ilya Lichtenstein, were arrested in 2022 and later pled guilty to laundering over $4.5 billion in stolen Bitcoin from the 2016 Bitfinex hack. Her post thanking Trump quickly sparked debate online, with users questioning whether political influence played a role in her early release. Morgan’s flamboyant online persona and past as a self-proclaimed “crypto rapper” have made her one of the most controversial figures in crypto-related crime.
While specific details surrounding the early release remain unclear, the public response continues to grow across social platforms. Legal analysts expect further scrutiny of the decision, particularly regarding how high-profile financial crime sentences are handled under future administrations. Morgan has not indicated whether she plans to return to public life or pursue new ventures following her release.
