I mean, I read it yesterday that one of the winners (3rd) was itBit from New York

But two of the big winners still did not reveal themselves

I mean, I was following this news since USMS announced that there will be a 3rd auction.

I know that Draper will be there, Silbert's SecondMarket will be there, Pantera Capital will be there.

But as of this moment there is still no official news about the two big winners.

I mean, do they get something when they do not reveal themeselves to the public? For me, if they are a business entity, revealing that they won the auction can actually help them.

The latest was that the BTC were already transferred to each of the winners.

Well revealing there identity would have a positive and negative effects.
Positive: They will become more trust worthy and their reputation will boost.
Negative: They will be prone for attacks

Now, what if they reveal itself and then protect their company securely. To get rid of the negative effects? Right?
