But here is the abstract for the part you are interested in: Lawyers for alleged Silk Road captain Ross W. Ulbricht (a.k.a. the “Dread Pirate Roberts”) asked the court to compel prosecutors to prove their version of events. And indeed, discovery documents reluctantly released by the government this week appear to poke serious holes in the FBI’s story. For starters, the defense asked the government for the name of the software that FBI agents used to record evidence of the CAPTCHA traffic that allegedly leaked from the Silk Road servers. The government essentially responded (PDF) that it could not comply with that request because the FBI maintained no records of its own access, meaning that the only record of their activity is in the logs of the seized Silk Road servers. The response that holds perhaps the most potential to damage the government’s claim comes in the form of a configuration file (PDF) taken from the seized servers. Nicholas Weaver,a researcher at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) and at the University of California, Berkeley, explains the potential significance: Title: Re: [2014-10-02] Silk Road Lawyers Poke Holes in FBI’s Story Post by: colinistheman on October 05, 2014, 01:37:07 PM It works for me But here is the abstract for the part you are interested in: Lawyers for alleged Silk Road captain Ross W.

Ross' 144,000+ Bitcoin would return to his hands...could have minor effect on the BTC market overall.
