>Such a hack is worth way, WAY more than the few BTC it could bring.
lol tons of ppl have been scammed. If by 'little' you means hundreds of k. In some Eastern European country that can last a lifetime.

$7k vs $100k, you choose.
Sure, you could short stocks and then make "Aaah, Tesla is going bankrupt!" tweets... But without an army of lawyers and accountants and money to pay them, it's hard to anonymously short stocks.
You could bribe people with publishing DM's - but again that's pretty high risk. And how do we know that hasn't already happened?
What else is there?
Also, unless they have the identity of the hackers, it wouldn't be that hard to make millions without sending any red flag. Tesla has an insanely high option volume, you could get into highly traded positions a few weeks/days before and cash out easily. Unless you really, really make dumb moves it's pretty safe. Much safer than cashing out on a BTC haul.
