Quote:Karl Bushby arrived on foot at his mother’s house in Hull, northeastern England, on Monday, completing an epic walk around the world that he began in South America half a lifetime ago, in 1998.

He was 29 when he set out. Now he is 57.

Bushby navigated shifting ice across the Bering Strait and swam across the Caspian Sea and English Channel. But most of his journey was on land, taking him through dangerous jungles, rainforests, deserts and frozen tundra in almost every kind of weather imaginable.

Here’s a look at Bushby’s adventure, by the numbers:

75 million:
If fitness trackers had been around when Bushby started his trip, it’s likely they couldn’t have kept up with his cumulative number of steps.

31,000:
The total mileage he put on his body is the equivalent of having run 10,000 5K road races (50,000 kilometers).

10,229:
He initially estimated the distance could be traversed in five years. “Then you just dump a whole bucket full of reality on that,” he said. “We suspected that it was 12 years plus. And the plus was a big plus. But never in our wildest dreams would we ever have imagined 28 years.” That adds up to 10,229 days.

31:
When geopolitical conflicts blocked his route through Russia and Iran, Bushby decided to swim across the Caspian Sea, the world’s largest inland body of water. During the 31-day crossing, he used a technique he calls “floatimming,” a combination of floating and swimming. Wearing a flotation vest and wetsuit, he propelled himself backward by flapping his arms in the water.

30:
Starting in Chile and ending in the U.K., he entered or passed through 30 countries before returning home.

10:
No country took Bushby longer to traverse than Russia, where his journey stretched over about a decade. He was detained and faced deportation for entering illegally after crossing the Bering Strait in 2006. Harsh weather allowed only a few months of travel each year, while bureaucratic delays repeatedly forced him to leave the country. After Russia denied him a visa in 2012, he spent a year walking 3,500 miles (5,600 kilometers) in protest from Los Angeles to the Russian Embassy in Washington, D.C., which then supplied the necessary paperwork.

4:
The trek has taken Bushby through South America, North America, Asia and Europe — all but three of the world’s seven continents.

2:
He fell in love twice and had his heart broken both times. He had long-term relationships with a woman from Colombia and another from Japan, but neither romance survived the strain of his journey.

‘A lot’:
Bushby estimates he wore through 10 pairs of shoes in the Americas before losing count. That was 20 years ago, so who can blame him? “After that we were just in and out of all kinds of different stuff,” he said. The total? “A lot.”

Quote:The theft of billions of dollars from Binance within a matter of minutes, the biggest crypto heist in history, was orchestrated by North Korean hackers, the FBI said Saturday.

The bureau said in a statement that this week's attack was tied to "malicious cyber activity" by an entity known as TraderTraitor, the same actors behind a $1.5 billion Bybit hack last year.

The FBI asked crypto exchanges, blockchain analytics companies and others to block transactions linked to various addresses to make sure the money is not laundered to cover up its origins.

It also said its probe found that TraderTraitor was converting stolen assets primarily into a cryptocurrency called ethereum. The FBI expects that TraderTraitor will now attempt to convert the assets using DeFi and "instant swap services."

Asked by reporters as he appeared on Saturday night during a Halloween party at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, however, President Donald Trump suggested investigators weren't yet certain that North Korea was involved.

"I'm not concerned. We're learning about it," Trump said of the case. "We don't know if it's North Korea." Though he added that, it could yet be determined that it was.

Crypto expert Ari Redbord said he expects the hackers will break the stolen assets into pieces and try to launder them through smaller exchanges to evade detection, a process that could unfold over months.

"It's bank robbery, in this case, at the speed of the Internet," said Redbord, chief policy officer at blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs. "However, we can also track and trace those funds in real time in order to build investigations, to disrupt and to seize back funds."

He added: "It's just this cat and mouse game."

On Thursday, $6.3 billion in bitcoin and other digital currency was stolen from Binance, the world's largest crypto exchange, in what several crypto experts said bore the hallmarks of a North Korean hack.

The company said Saturday that it had enough set aside in the same digital currency that was stolen to cover 90% of the missing assets and promised that customers would be fully reimbursed.
