Nearly every victim was a LastPass user.

But every victim was a cryptocurrency user.

I'd be willing to bet that people store their key phrases in the notes section in LastPass which was not encrypted at rest

This is incorrect information. Notes are encrypted, just not their "type". Unfortunately the most direct source for this is a reddit link, but here it is anyway.
