Re: CRYPTSY stopping withdraw locking accounts without notifying users! Class Action

The reason he is not on those lits is because... he might be. But at the end of the day, China and the US have no extradition treaty so if he was on that list, there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Whether or not he can be extradited from China shouldn't play into whether or not he's on one of those lists. He stole what's worth $200MM now in BTC and its subsequent forks alone. That doesn't include Dash, Monero, Eth, and all the shitcoins that have blown up since his exit scam.

The silver lining is that if he wasn't shitting himself after a $6MM heist, he'll be well and truly shitting himself with a $200MM heist. People will be looking for him soon and they won't be law enforcement.

Do you REALLY think that people are gonna go track him down now to do him harm?

Please.

If anyone was gonna do it they would have a long time ago. The theft was officially reported at 10m. The value currently of the items stolen isnt important. As far as the feds are concerned (and they REALLY dont care)
it was a 10m dollar deal.

He got away with it, and thats all there is to it.

You're right. The Feds aren't interested in putting an additional $200M in their coffer. What were we thinking?

It wouldnt be the feds money... hence they dont care. They kept all the botcoins from silkroad, and as far as I know they are still there

Au contraire ...

The $48.2 million total proceeds means the government sold the bitcoins for an average of $334. In retrospect, the sale appears to be a matter of bad timing for the government: the price of a bitcoin was as high as $1,000 at the end of 2013 before the digital currency went into a prolonged slump until mid-2016 when it began to soar. The current price is around $4,400meaning the Justice Department would have made around $630 million had the sale taken place today.

Or ~$2.5B today.

But if they recovered the stolen cryptsy funds, they would have to be returned to the origional owners... they should not become property of the government.

Should.. Key term

The only funds the judge ruled as belonging to the plaintiffs were the BTC in the key transaction. The US government have been otherwise proven to do what they want with their Civil Forfeiture laws.

There's no reason to assume they wouldn't wield that law to their advantage and take the following:

300,000 LTC x $400 = $120MM
450,000 DSH x $900 = $405MM
11,300 BCH x $1600 = $18MM
