Luke had his wallet sitting on a server that he knew to be compromised for months. There is no reason to expect a nation state actor, his loss was 100% his own poor security. It also says a lot about the "wisdom" of hosting your own wallet. Can't trust the exchanges, and you can't trust your own wallet.

How do you know this? Luke has denied this over and over again. It seems like you've invented this in order to defame him.

He twitted it himself in November:

He then only "purged the backdoors" which suggests very poor approach to security. If anything, he publicly discredited himself.
