A hacker identified only as Individual X have been sitting on a
cryptocurrency gold mine for seven years prior to the IRS came
knocking.More than seven years have passed since Ross Ulbricht was arrested in the science fiction section of a San Francisco library and faced with running the
sprawling, dark web drug bazaar called the
Silk Road. But once the Feds laid practical Ulbricht's laptop that day, they found keys to unlock only a fraction of the bitcoins he had
amassed over the Silk Road's years of bustling
black world market (usedcars.com.ph) drug trade.
Today the Justice Department finally revealed where a billion-dollar tranche of the Silk Road's treasure finished up: stolen by a
mystical hacker, and now seized by the US Treasury.
