Pretty crazy stuff. 29 year old dude with an 80 billion dollar bitcoin fortune made off maintaining the Silkroad arrested! Even potentially responsible for two murders.

Ah . Haven't been here in a couple days obviously...I don't usually look past the first page of posts. My bad. :p

I look forward to the movie that will surely be made about this. What a greedy .

And while I will always question the security of TOR, they caught him because they linked his gmail account with the SilkRoad.

Also, going on LinkedIn and saying the following isn't the best idea:

“I want to use economic theory as a means to abolish the use of coercion and agression [sic] amongst mankind. To that end, I am creating an economic simulation to give people a first-hand experience of what it would be like to live in a world without the systemic use of force.”

What I want to know is how did they locate the server.

The ponies run, the girls are young,
The odds are there to beat.
You win a while, and then it’s done –
Your little winning streak.
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat,
You live your life as if it’s real,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed,
I’m back on Boogie Street.
You lose your grip, and then you slip
Into the Masterpiece.
And maybe I had miles to drive,
And promises to keep:
You ditch it all to stay alive,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

And sometimes when the night is slow,
The wretched and the meek,
We gather up our hearts and go,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

Confined to sex, we pressed against
The limits of the sea:
I saw there were no oceans left
For scavengers like me.
I made it to the forward deck.
I blessed our remnant fleet –
And then consented to be wrecked,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed,
I’m back on Boogie Street.
I guess they won’t exchange the gifts
That you were meant to keep.
And quiet is the thought of you,
The file on you complete,
Except what we forgot to do,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

And sometimes when the night is slow,
The wretched and the meek,
We gather up our hearts and go,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

The ponies run, the girls are young,
The odds are there to beat . . .

The thing I find funny about these kinds of shut downs is that as soon as you shut it down, more sites will appear in the coming weeks.

The only thing you could argue was that after they shut down napster, ALL OTHER MUSIC SHARING PROGRAMS THAT CAME OUT AFTER SUCKED SO MUCH DICK GOD IING HATE SHAREBEAR!!!!!!!!!!!
