US Attorney Announces $3.36B Cryptocurrency Seizure in Connection with Silk Road
I may get slammed for this, but I don’t understand the resources that apparently went into tracking down some kid who stole from an illegal marketplace a decade again.This feels way less like “pursing justice” and more like trying to track down everything the just I’ve department can seize and auction off. If Bitcoin hadn’t drastically increased in value since the original event, would this have ever been tracked down?I cant even count the number of much more consumer-impacting crypto-related frauds, crimes, and hacks from the last 3 years that would be more deserving of justice department attention, rather than focusing resources and attention on a double withdrawal bug from an illegal marketplace from a decade ago.
