I think the fool of a writer would get his ass kicked off of wikipedia at the bare minimum for using so goddamned many weasel words.

Why would you think "busted"?

The more media attention the more it grows.

Please change the title of this thread to something more sensible like "A Silk road user busted?"

Maybe it'll push the local price of coins up to irrational levels again.

I'd better go and top it up.

Edit: Someone took all my NZD$9 coins, so NZD9.50 now (around USD7.60)

speaking of NZD, I carried around a bunch of NZ cash just for fun for nearly a decade, funny thing is that when I finally exchanged it back to USD I had actually made a profit

This is an uninteresting thread because they did not capture a silk road drug dealer, but a silk road user.
