Big collection, no particular order?   Grin

You're right ... Arthurs teeth make way more sense than JJG. Tongue

That assertion might have some truths to it.   Cry Cry

Pics of those teeths tend to present admireably as:  BIG, scary and organized.

My speculation is that direction.  They are some of the most honest pirates on the high seas.  I bet they are not even fractional. 

We just don't want the gvmt getting a hold of enough of the keys.

Wonder if Hayes uses the insurance fund for lawyers... could make sense.

The other three Bitmex representatives who were charged gotta be feeling some kinds of pressures, currently.  I would imagine that they have decent amounts of moneys that they can spend on attorneys, and they may even be able to garner some sympathy donations, too (from the bitcoin community, and perhaps even some shitcoiners might be willing to send value in such legal defense direction).

BitMEX has got a large stash :  the insurance fund of 21k btc...

them feds are hungry for bitcoin. I did read that the silkroad btc the us Marshall service had auctioned off would be worth $1 billion today.
