God that would so suck if it did turn out to be Mark Karpeles!  The last thing bitcoin needs after all of the good news from the past few days is to have
that boob be the actual sole winner of that auction.

Well in that case if the FBI ceased the bitcoins from Karpeles bid after taking them from the Silk Road
That would be a riot  Cool

Thanks need a joke picture now and then that is on bitcoin ^_^.

But that is what I call total ownage

The winning bidder outbid all other parties for the 10 auction blocks, according to the USMS. Further, the bitcoins have already been transferred to the winner, according to Blockchain.

The USMS previously said that it would begin notifying bidders as to whether they had secured any of the blocks on 30th June. The auction took place on Friday, 27th June over a 12-hour span.

So is there absolutely no indication so far of who bought the coins and for how much? Will this information ever be revealed or is it up to the buyer to come forward? I very much doubt it was Karpales though.

The coins were "bought" by a three letter agency that simply has priority in these auctions. Only a symbolic amount of USD changed hands, and coins were transferred to a different arm of the US government.
