LOL good luck retrieving them

>>52271919
black swan events don't get released to the public beforehand my dear friend

I don't remember ever hearing about a stolen 50,000+ bitcoin being part of the Silk Road story

wouldn't Ross Ulbricht have tried to have him assassinated? kek

>>52271919
imagine pulling this off and then continue to live inside the US. must have been a retard.

>>52272017
Stolen? Its confiscated bitcoin, so yes stolen but not by silk road but the goverment

Slurp incoming

>>52272037
no, I mean the article is implying that he stole it from Silk Road. Like he hacked wallets connected to the marketplace or something. He can't have gotten that much bitcoin just from being a seller surely...

Its why sec ops is so important. I bet the vast majority of cold wallets can easily be seized because people don't use passphrases or leave their password written down somewhere. You essentially must have a secure, memorized passphrase if you want to know your crypto is truly secure.

will it dump?

>>52272066
He probably didn't hack wallets but engaged in some confidence scams to obtain BTC in return for promised goods to druggies, which he never delivered on.

>>52271919
why blackswan keke
this is good they can never retrieve the money so theres 50k btc less in circulation

why can't the coins be retrieved? it seems like the gov is just trying to get it done through their channels

>>52272175
you know they can just, like, torture him, right?

>>52272022
Money you can spend is worthless. Everything is kycd to the max now days. Theres no way to dump any of that tainted buttcoin.

>>52272007
this, a black swan is unexpected therefore, this is just a full sage post, never go full sage

>>52272201
If he was smart enough to pull a scam of that size, I'm sure he was smart enough to forsee that and took measures

>>52272336
I'm a bait farmer mother fucker

>>52271934
It says they retrieved them in the article, its right there

>>52272066
Was he the one who social engineered Ross Ulbricht into giving him those bitcoins? Someone impersonated hells angels leader and tricked Ulbricht out of a lot of bitcoin.

>>52271919
How do these guys let the government take their Bitcoin, do they give them the keys or what

>>52271934
retard they GOT them, it's over. Seizure

>>52272803
it's called taking a deal, no point being filthy rich if you have a life sentence

>>52272867
That dude isn't getting out of jail, Silk Road guy still in jail, BTC-e guy still in jail.

>>52272201
Not in America.

>>52271919
Black Swan may have already happened. Funny coincidence that when they seized these funds is the same time the market crashed.

>>52272066
The way some articles described it, he setup like 20 accounts, started a deposit transactions and then withdrew it all before it was authorized (deposits didn't go through).

>>52272912
It couldn't have been that stupid

However that is a stupid amount of bitcoin... and Ross was not apparently good at housekeeping, so..

>>52272901
>torture
>not in america
LMAO

>>52272888
regardless you can still negotiate other stuff, maybe he gets ice cream every week now id trade my bitcoins for that if im stuck in jail forever

>>52272120
>>52272912
So promise druggies drugs but never deliver them? Sounds like he's innocent If he never delt drugs.

>>52271919
Things are going to get a little spicy ladies.

>>52273230
kek, okay I see your point.

>>52273151
tell me even 5 people that were "tortured" in American prisons. Because the Moslem retards in Cuba, they don't count.

>>52271919
so wxy like 2015. Open your bags its raining bitcoin. 2023-25 is going to be a wild ride 1 Million ahead

>>52271934
>this idiot still thinks they care about the money
lmao crypto is worthless and now you know why

>>52272069
>leave their password written down somewhere.
in most cases the private key is just next to the computer when LE do arrests involving cryptos

>>52272175
it's the opposite my retard. the gov will sell those coins, but only in a few years i guess. criminals are forced holders

>>52273837
>what is Guantanamo Bay

>>52271919
Way worse than the $3.3B dump incoming, it's the judeocracy admitting they have complete oversight over the entire "cryptosphere".
>State of the art crypto tracing
is literally the kikes trolling and dabbing over you.
This shit is full of NSA backdoors. No matter if it's XMR, tornado cash, tor, etc... you CANNOT hide from the (((glowniggers))), because they are the ones who designed it.

Between this, the CZ v SBF war, constant """hacks"""/rugpulls, regulations, institutions on survival mode... everything looks so fucking grim. Another total MC's 50% haircut is more than likely before January. And slurpers will be nowhere to be seen.

>>52272901
>Not in America.
Ohh my sweet sweeterino winter childerino

>>52273837
>tell me even 5 people that were "tortured" in American prisons.
That's exactly for this reason the CIA have ghost prisons on boats circling around in the international waters.
And i could cite you many more than 5 even on US soil.

Wake the fuck up, you live in the most demonic judeocratic shithole and you still believe in the fairy tales you were told in the 80s jewllywood movies?

>>52271934
>LOL good luck retrieving them
Good luck not dying in prison? It is amazing what six months in a secure unit in a cell with a convicted multiple murderer for 23 hours a day can do to change someone's mind.

>>52274351
Your arab/vatnik seething is leaking. The US government does not torture people. It does not need to. Torture is unproductive and does not produce good information.

>>52274390
This nigger glows like its Chernobyl

>>52274390
GLOWIE SPOTTED

>>52271919
CAN'T ANY OF YOU FAGGOTS READ?! THIS WAS LAST YEAR!!!
ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE GASSED.

>If devices with BTC keys on them get seized, the coins can be seized too
HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO FUCKING CRAZY AND UNEXPECTED

SAFE, ANONYMOUS, DECENTRALIZED

>>52274390
>we....uh....tortured some folks
You don't even pay attention to the spoonfed narrative do you?

>>52271919

Amazing but not surprising no of you read the whole article.
It's going to be auctioned off like every other time the fed has seized bitcoins. This goes for all property that is seized by the feds. Like before, one entity buy all the bitcoins under market price. Why? How? Seeing as how the fed itself would not get the same price, since selling it all at once would crash the market. Tim Draper bought around 30,000BTC in June 2014 from the feds and it barely moved the price

>>52274600
I would expect one of the exchanges to buy them most likely Binance

Sweet. Another 50k BTC out of circulation giving even more value to mine.

>>52274644
>out of circulation

>>52274704
Yes, you quoted that correctly. Until the day those BTC are allowed to be used in any way they are, by definition, out of circulation.

>>52274728
and when they're allowed, we expect profit taking

>>52274206
Just take your btc to el salvador and self custody. Bye niggers

>>52274390
You're worse than anti-MBTI 'they're just horoscopes used by every glownigger org on the planet!' shills

>>52274353
You don't understand. The guy probably set things up so that not even he could have immediate access to it.
