I don't get it. How did they confiscate wallets?
they got access to the marketplace .dat file and transferred all the coins to a private account
Oh so they got
a wallet with 11,000 coins. This article made it sound like they got the personal wallets of 11,000 users of this site.
its possible that the website had 11k accounts, or more likely that the wallet had 11k separate addresses with balances probably including change addresses. you know how the feds and the media love to over exaggerate
