How do you forget about $120 million dollars worth of BTC (at the current rate of $600)?
It sounds like BS to me. I personally think someone (Mark Karpeles) is started to crap their pants and is "finding" all this lost money.Originally Posted by Exidous
/facepalm.....Now do they actually know who they belong to? How on earth to you not know you have 200,000BTC in a wallet.......

You're probably right. Considering all the stories about how druglords are using BTC I'd imagine they (Mt Gox) will be having some VERY unsavory characters knocking on their doors.Originally Posted by Xylene

Gah, my stupid eyes. It's still early and the calculator on my computer does not have commas. I kept staring at the screen when i did it and saying "how many 0's is that?" while squinting. Fixed.Originally Posted by jaydude025

You cared enough to probably read the article and take the time to post about it. So to answer your question, obviously you care.Originally Posted by MASSKILLA
Who really cares?
They didn't lose/find anything. They stole them or allowed them to be stolen on purpose (inside job)Originally Posted by Xylene

I don't know about any "missing btc" due to silk road but I know the fbi seized a ton. The fbi is actually now the #1 holder of btcOriginally Posted by goodtobeking
I wonder if this has anything to do with the Silk Road and the bitcoins they never found
yeah they seized some ungodly amount from the guy who was running silk road. So likely the gov't will wait until bitcoin hits some record high and sell them all off and then declare btc illegal and funding terrorOriginally Posted by DrClaw
WHAT the fbi has the most bitcoins, oh dear
Oh I never heard they actually got them. I thought they had found the wallets but couldnt access them. I was thinking more of a extra cache rather than what they seized thoughOriginally Posted by HardwareDecoder
