Another falsehood that the suggested FBI action to auction off their seized Bitcoins makes it legally recognized somehow. This is no different from them selling off a car, house, boat, painting or anything else seized, they are simply selling an asset.
I don't see this as a "falsehood"!
The Govt does NOT auction off pot, counterfeits, forgeries, fake goods, ETC.
They ONLY auction articles that ARE LEGAL.
so IF they do auction any BTC's they ARE setting up a precedent for recognizing them AS a LEGAL product (by their existence, not necessarily ever use of them)
