Just saw that a movie/propaganda piece has come out about the creation of the Silk Road, not watched it yet but has the same vibe as The Social Network, which is total bull crap..."Philosophical twenty-something Ross Ulbricht creates Silk Road| a dark net website that sells narcotics| while DEA agent Rick Bowden goes undercover to bring him down." https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7937254/. To me it is the best way for DS to sell drugs and people and arrange assassinations for bitcoin, while "they" take out the competition operating on "their" platform and look good in the eyes of the sheep.

A few things you may find interesting I stumbled on a few mths ago
-did you know there was a large amount of $ moved from a bc wallet of silk rd funds, that had been sitting for years--this happened on ELECTION night. It was an unknown person, individual x, made it possible for a us attorney (who appears to be a good guy, DT appointed, David Anderson) to seize the funds, which went to treasury, about a billion $ https://news.bitcoin.com/a-look-at-individual-x-and-the-seized-stash-of-silk-road-bitcoins-worth-1-billion/ Of all the days for a seizure, 11/3--, cant help it but a certain EO came to mind
Also -Look up Ross's story, I stumbled on his website, his mom has been fighting for him, they have the whole story there, and there is def more to it, the guy seems like a fall guy to me. Lots of info there- freeross.org
-SR -the actual one that the online was named after--historically speaking--trade /commerce route that linked east to west, china to italy. They are working on bringing it back https://about-history.com/silk-road-connection-between-the-east-and-west/
Theres so much more to it all
While Ulbricht admits to creating Silk Road, he claims to have passed the operation onto someone else, leaving him to become a "fall guy" for that person. An appeal against his life sentence was rejected in 2017...https://www.techspot.com/news/88011-report-donald-trump-could-grant-clemency-silk-road.html
Definitely a stich up, they only go after you this hard if they are afraid. The family asked Trump for a pardon, but if he knows the users of the worst part's of Silk Road he will be in danger until they get taken down, similar boat to Assange.
Ross seems like he was somewhat of a naive guy with maybe a decent motives at heart but lacking street smarts, and shouldve never opened that door by playing on the dark side. After I read about the BC wallet billion $ seizure on elec night, I was intrigued and I did some more researching, and read about the case details on the ross site, crazy how the ones who actually were selling and outright committing specific crimes, knowingly, got off w/little punishment.
The BC $ seizure is still a mystery, who is indivdual x? And the us attorney who did the seizure seems like a good guy w/ a good track record. It seems so weird that the largest BC wallet transfer, a seizure, would happen on the night of an elec that many believe was fraudulent, based on endless evidence of fraud. And that BC $ was originally tied to Silk Rd, access given by an unknown person, x.
Im betting there is a lot more to all of this. If I wasnt so busy rn in general Id be researching it more bc it is interesting. I pray the truth prevails whatever it is, with all this. And innocent ppl are vindicated, guilty ones punished according to what theyve done.
I also read that about the agent and SR murdr. It was a couple months ago, cant remember where.
I think JA is a good comparison to RU.
