Let's just say that I really, really don't want to make this post.  But I feel like I have to.

For the record, I've never been to Silk Road.  I've never consumed or dealt illegal drugs.  I've never met Ross Ulbricht.

Since I believe that this forum has been compromised as a platform of free information exchange, for some time, I fully expect this to be deleted or moved.  I've gone ahead and made a copy elsewhere.

For the last several years, I've been privy to some inside information on a few public events.  I've never mentioned most of them publicly.  They are simply too crazy to believe.  Like I said, I'd rather not be discussing this one either.



The first time I saw this picture of Ross Ulbricht was long before his arrest.  I had noticed him on these forums, based on some comment he had made, and Googled around and ran across his photo.  The photo told me all I needed to know.  I made a mental note, dismissed him as a troll, and forgot about it.

Shortly before the Silk Road bust, I made this post, which I think is relevant.

The second time I saw the photo of Ulbricht was when news of the Silk Road bust broke.  The photo jogged my memory.  I knew I had seen it before.  And I knew the reason such a comical photo was being used so prominently.  I was still not sure, however, exactly who Ross Ulbricht was, or what his involvement was.  I intended to wait until his eventual trial to decide, though I expected there would be some kind of plea deal, and not end up being a trial at all.

However, when Silk Road users such as this one started coming forward with their own information and experiences, corroborating what I suspected, I felt that I would have to say something.  I sent a message to one of them, trying to get some more info on what they thought might be going on.  And now that some more irregularities are beginning to come out, I need to throw in some of what I know.

Here's what I can add to this, for now.  Ross Ulbricht is not who he claims to be.  This photo of him is not only altered, but staged.  I have gone back and forth, considering whether he could simply be an unwitting dupe in this, whether someone could have convinced him to pose for a photo in a way that could be used against him.  But considering that the photo is not only staged, but altered as well, I have to assume that he is actively involved in what is, at the very least, an elaborate hoax.  Now that others have come to the same conclusion, I can confirm that I believe this to be the case as well, based on my own evidence.

Perhaps I will disclose more at a future date, but I think that's good for now.

lol OP atleast read the entire warrant request, then you may learn enough stuff to move onto investigate.

dont say you know little about the case then suddenly say you know this massive secret that should not be mentioned. hinting that it proves ulbrich is not DPR..

learn to research and not to try getting 5 minutes of fame with a troll story. the whole DPR is a monika passed down to each new website mod of silk road, lol ulbrich has been linked to SR since 2011, so he isn't just some unwitting dupe that was just hired to network monitor a website.

again learn to research

that being said i think this OP has gone a few days with out his favourite plant, thus now trying to use his grey matter for some other purpose to keep his mind off the fact he can no longer get any. by coming up with silly idea's

now if you really want a conspiracy theory here is one for you:
you were adopted, your real name is Kal-el, now go research into your real parents and the destiny they wanted you to aspire too.

I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

Hmmm.  So who wants to go 50/50 on a tinfoil-hat manufacturing business?  Seems more lucrative every day.

I don't get it. What is wrong with this photo? How could this photo be used "against him"? All I can see is somewhat unflattering but otherwise utterly mundane photo. You are talking in riddles.

Hi Benjamin, please excuse me but I don't get a point: you said you noticed him on these forum(s) and, googling around you found his picture, the one you posted. Apart from the funny mouth, I wonder how were you able to match a username (altoid if I recall well) with that picture? And where exactly did you find it?
Thanks, cheers.

You're right, that was poor wording on my part.  "Used in a way in which he did not intend" is what I meant.

I wonder how were you able to match a username (altoid if I recall well) with that picture? And where exactly did you find it?

I don't remember exactly.  But it wasn't difficult.  Just a simple Google search.  I'm not in the habit of going all "internet detective" on random forum posters.  But I remember the comment piqued my interest because it seemed disingenuous.  The picture confirmed this belief.  I don't remember the username.  It may or may not have been 'altoid'.  It may or may not have even been posted by him.  But I remember the picture.  I know the reason I remember the picture.  And I'm not the only one who can make this connection.  All I'm saying is that there is more going on here than is obvious at first glance.  I felt like I needed to make this known, so that perhaps it might help others who are trying to piece together exactly what it is.

Well, SR is mostly illegal drugs, but has anyone ever bought from http://www.superdrugsaver.com/ ? They are mostly legal drugs, but some may need a prescription.

Ross' "friend" confirms that Ross has a psychology degree from Penn State.

This fact seems to have been conveniently omitted from all other media coverage.

This is a fucking psy-op.

Don't you "moron" me. October 23rd?? What is this, fucking Mars time? The thread was on page 1 today. I didn't look to see if the link had been back-dated 3 days. Edit: though I guess it looks like the site probably does that automatically. Still doesn't make me a moron.

Yes, it does make you a moron.
1- The date is below the thread title, so...
2- You didn't even search. I found it in 5 seconds, by searching the thread title.
3- You posted the same in 2 different threads, just to show how nasty we moderators are.
4- Given the above, you care more about spreading FUD than facts

The Most Likely Theory

edit:  reposted here due to censorship

Quote
This is my current theory as to what exactly is going on. It is mostly theory, but based on a few key facts.

The Silk Road was quietly compromised months ago. The real DPR handed over his Bitcoins in exchange for being placed in witness protection.

"Ross Ulbricht" is an actor. His photos are absurd caricatures. His background has been fabricated. This, I know for a fact. But I won't go into the exact reason, for now.

So, Ross Ulbricht won't ever go to prison. He might not even have a trial. He's in the Southern District of New York, totally controlled by banksters.

The attempted murder-for-hire was probably fabricated as well, to be bandied about in libertarian political circles in order to identify those who would justify killing the few for the good of the many. This is the overarching philosophy of statism, that freedom is a threat to society, and that those who promote it must be eliminated for the good of all.

When this hoax was exposed by this Subreddit, obviously it jeopardized the FBI's agreement with DPR. The FBI decided they needed to secure access to his Bitcoins, by moving them immediately. So, yesterday, they magically managed to "break into" DPR's wallet. They also began arresting Silk Road vendors.

It is far too early in the legal proceedings for Ross Ulbricht to be cooperating. These actions are being taken based on information the FBI already had, from the real DPR.

Don't underestimate what we are dealing with, here. The US federal government, the cabal in control of the US economy, is gunning for Bitcoin. They are gunning for those who promote individual liberty and freedom. And they are engaged in a lot of dirty tricks in order to do so. This is just the latest in a long line of these types of operations.

I wish there were more to this story as the OP indicates, because that's some great conspiracy theory stuff! Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure it went down the way they said it did.

And then they somehow got court records planted in courts and on court websites, planted fake court documents on Immigrations and Custom Enforcement, issued fake press releases from ICE, put more fake court documents on the Department of Justice website, issued fake press releases from the Department of Justice, etc. etc. etc.

Just in case anyone is taking this seriously and not as the drop-dead retarded bullshit it is.  Look at the past posts of OP.  He's never been anything but a troll here.

I guess this is another good thread to fill ignore lists.
