Meet the Dread Pirate Roberts, the man behind Silk Road
The Dread Pirate's curse is that he'll never be able really spend much of this pile of currency that he's accumulated, at least not without drawing attention to himself and getting busted.<p>History has shown that these guys eventually get busted but rarely for drug dealing; it's usually the IRS that busts them for tax evasion.   If you're buying fancy cars, big houses, yachts, or businesses, eventually someone is going to catch on and follow the money trail.
