Did I miss something? I didn't expect the price to rise these days to be honest.
No you did not, people are just randomly clicking buttons like they always do  I actually though the price will go down even more as KNC is shipping massive amounts of miners right now KNC is shipping? KNC is shipping. And, apparently, exploding. http://forum.kncminer.com/forum/main-category/hardware/5267-unit-s-catching-firelol.... yikes. Guess that's when the hosting option is good, let them deal with fire suppression. I wouldn't want one of those in my house with kids sleeping. |

I really dont buy the whole murder for hire plot. Why would he of all people not speak with an encrypted message about that matter? The whole thing is sketchy, but I don't know. How do you openly discuss a murder for hire without PGP? DPR: What will it take to get rid of him? Red: 500k DPR: Okay sent. Pics to confirm? Red: Pics sent. DPR: Ty! Really?  ? #1 the whole transaction which is supposedly word for word is too bland for a half a million dollar deal. #2 how do they have a recording of these messages? Also obviously no one was murdered on or around that date in BC. Wouldn't a good murder be one where a death seemed natural? |

It's appalling to post that you think murder is an acceptable form of justice!. One of the very worst things about Bitcoin is the lunatic fringe it has attracted, no thanks to SR. I hope now it's gone people like you will leave our community and never come back.
The fact that some idiot thinks I'm "authoritarian" for merely being unsurprised at Ulbricht's true nature just shows how deluded some people really were. You didn't have to be a genius to see that he might be dangerous.
Yes, it might turn out that the entire set of conversations were a total fiction pulled out of some law enforcers arse. In that case I will take back these words. But somehow I doubt it. Parallel construction is not the same thing as simply inventing non-existent documents out of thin air.
+1
I hope that this SR never comes back online, and I hope to every similar site to get down right away, we do not need these experiences around this community Bitcoin was a Nobel Idea, now people who supported the SR GTFO there is no such thing here anymore.....
I am so shocked.. I cant describe... selling drugs then killing people is making justice !!!!... where is your humanity ?Actually, kind of sounds like some sort of Breaking Bad plot rip off. |

Really bizarre that someone so successful and so paranoid did something so utterly stupid. Hubris? He got away with it for 30 months so he figured he was invulnerable. In Iraq units generally suffer higher than normal casualties in the first and last month of a deployment. The early casualties are due to inexperience and the later ones due to overconfidence.
There doesn't seem to be just one mistake, but a few. Seems there was a pattern of not being able to keep his identity unknown. |

Got rid of all my AM shares. Time to bail out. If it drops much more I may buy in again.
I was on shortly after his message and that's exactly what I did. It's down, but not quite ready to buy back. There is a way to go still. |

So the crash was caused by good news? lol or by huge sales amounts. which i believe can be confiscated wallets as written in the report. why not sell and pay off part of us govt debt? If they held onto them for a few years, they could pay off the entire national debt with them! You clearly don't have good comprehension of the liabilities the US government is facing... Or I'm incredibly bullish! |

Of course drug dealers don't want drugs legalized. DPR claimed he wasn't just a simple dealer but rather some ideological crusader for a better tomorrow (by which he meant: anarcho-capitalism, his idea of utopia). He wasn't only selling drugs remember, but also malware, forged documents, he experimented with selling weaponry, etc ...
Source? Source not needed. One only had to visit SR to see this. I don't think DPR was the one selling all of that. All of that was available on his marketplace. A little different, no? |

Crazy shit:  Wow I hate to say this.. but the owner of silkroad is an idiot.. And a murderer. We don't need murderers paying for "clean" or "un-clean" hits in BTC. What a piece of shit. As many stated here, the fact he was caught is a good thing. I second and third and whatever else this comment. If this is true, his is a piece of shit and he will deserve whatever they throw at him. He gives humans in general a bad name. I so hope this is not true, people are not "things" you "take care of" Might not have been as bad I guess if he didn't have such a unique name. |

I seem to be missing the word "arrest". Most likely through some manipulation of tor they were able to find and break into the server. That "wealth of information" probably led to clues which led to more which eventually led to them making the arrest not in July but yesterday.
Read the whole article. I'll quote more for you. The government says it identified Ulbricht after a routine border search of a package that contained nine counterfeit IDs. The package was shipped from Canada to an address in San Francisco. When the government visited the San Francisco address, they found Ulbricht there.
The government then identified the primary Silk Road server and obtained an image of its hard drive in July, providing the federal government with a wealth of information about the Silk Road's operations. It says because of the fake id's they found him there, then they talk about finding the server, and they mention July. If that narrative is to be believed, it sure adds lovely poetic overtones to that September DPR response to Atlantis's closure. Indeed. |

However, the court documents note that Canadian law enforcers have said there was no record of a homicide taking place in White Rock, British Columbia at the time.
Do you really think a person on the silk road just went up and shot someone. They probably used a poison method. Death by poison would be considered a homicide as well, Sherlock.. Not if they aren't looking for it. Look up Robert "Iceman" Kuklinski, many of the people he killed were never linked due to the fact he used poison and it looked like a heart attack. Considering that proof of the murder was sent via a photo, the method probably left more of a mark than poison or a heart attack. It is well known photos cannot be edited and there is no such thing as makeup or special effects I'm just saying that a picture of someone just lying there, with no obvious signs of trauma, wouldn't be much proof. And again... for not too much $$$, you could get someone to stage paint a convincing headshot wound and snap a photo.. |

Yet again, my Bitcoin Keychains used on the Washington Post to represent Bitcoin (good news or bad)! A bunch of my BTC buy orders have executed, time to set up some new limit orders be ready for what could come the next few days. I'm long Bitcoin, it's all an opportunity as I see it. Your image, or just your keychain? How is your image license? I'm all for opensource but if you haven't licensed it that way, go get 'em. |

also, past seizure images did not have drop shadows on the logos. Read my post above this one, yes they have. |
|
|
|
Is anyone curious as to why the SR logo is in the background of the seizure notice?? In past FBI seizure's the logo has never appeared.   Do an images search for domain seized. They have FBI logos on them, all the agencies involved. I've never seen the company that they seized their logo in the background, and have never seen it for a hidden service. |

I found DPR's altoid account, but I don't see the silk road advert post dated January 29th, 2011. The earliest post is from February 25th, 2011, and is about running bitcoind on Debian... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3905;sa=showPosts;start=40I suspect DPR deleted the post (wouldn't you?) and the FBI found it by requesting logs from bitcointalk admins. Theymos, can you confirm? Even if he could confirm, he is probably under restriction not to. |

It would be funny if the Government had Goldman S. crew sitting on the Bid buying it all the way down.
Dirty bastards... They would do that too.
I am wondering how he is NOT in jail?? Should the vendors/users be concerned... only time will tell.
You're wondering why he's not in Jail? He was arrested in July... The site was still running until today... does that not make sense to anyone? He made a deal, ran the site, and there are going to be tons of arrests. If you were selling illegal stuff on SR, they're coming for you if they haven't already. |
