In mid-August, a Redditor named “sick_silk” took the world by surprise when he posted that a dormant wallet containing 111,114.62 $BTC / $ BCH had got active indicating that the wallet belonged to the Dark Web drug’s marketplace SilkRoad. But now it turns out that there is no SilkRoad involvement. In the latest development regarding this matter, WizSec, a security specialist firm based in Tokyo, tweeted saying that the investigated wallet belonged to Mt Gox and not SilkRoad- a possibility which even the Redditor felt could be.

This doesn't make sense, mt gox has no reason to sell those bitcoins. They even said themselves that no sales will be made until mid 2019, unless they realise that hodling is a better strategy so move them into a cold storage vault

they are all speculating about everything that is related to this news. everything including the amounts that are being moves,  the addresses that are linked, where they are going to and who they belong to. and a lot more. and the worst part is that most of the things they say are pure guesses without solid evidence to back it up. the total amount may not even be t hat much.

as for the tweet, it is just a firm trying to advertise their services in my opinion, nothing more.

I think that's very bad. Mt GOX said that it will reimburse all losses to investors affected by the hacking of the exchange..... If we consider that the price at the time of the disaster was about$ 1000 by selling these coins, they will not only compensate for all losses but also get an excellent profit.
