The crypto exchange TradeOgre has been drained for Millions of Dollars. An op_return transaction claims that the funds are now in custody of the Canadian Government.
TradeOgre is a custodial non-KYC exchange particularly popular among users of the privacy coin Monero. To sign up with TradeOgre, users needed nothing more than an email address. Two months ago, users first began noticing that TradeOgre's website went offline and the exchange had ceased all public communication.
This morning, for the first time since July 29th, TradeOgre funds are on the move – to an address allegedly controlled by the Canadian Government.

Bull Bitcoin Francis has an interesting take:
No idea but seems likely.

Sucks, I liked TradeOgre. UI was pretty minimalist. We're at the stage where governments want to use crypto, but don't exactly know how to so they got to appeal to the general masses.
Next they'll mention how they "reclaimed funds from THIEVES on an underground exchange!"
