I don’t know a ton about Ross Ulbricht. 

Reasonable friends of mine outside of crypto are appalled, noting that he attempted murder.  

Reasonable friends of mine within crypto are celebrating.

I get the divisiveness of the dark money aspect here (the for and against). But is the murder part true?

Apparently he paid $650k of Bitcoin to pay for 5 assassinations

But the case was thrown out because the agents investigating it tried to pocket the BTC which kinda leaves it up in the air 

(Based on very little exposure to the topic)

It was all mad sketchy top to bottom, definitely foul play on law enforcement side 

Idk enough details to say anymore tbh

I like to think that he didn't, but not deep enough to know which ways north

And iirc two of the people weren't even real, and one was one of the federal agents extorting him yeah?

(It is bad that my instinctive first thought here is “wonder what that 650k is worth today”)
