$BTC Today, for the first time in 14 years, eight dormant BTC wallets were awakened, each containing at least 10,000 bitcoins. They transferred 80,009 BTC worth $8.69 billion. This is approximately 684,072,840,000 rubles. There is speculation that these assets may belong to Ross Ulbricht — the owner of the anonymous drug platform Silk Road. Ulbricht has been serving a life sentence since May 28, 2015, but was pardoned by U.S. President Donald Trump on January 22, 2025. At that time, there were rumors that he secured the pardon in exchange for donations of large sums from his secret crypto reserves, which U.S. authorities were unable to trace and confiscate during his arrest.
