The feds on Monday moved nearly $2 billion of seized Bitcoin from shuttered dark web marketplace Silk Road to Coinbase, blockchain data shows. 

Arkham Intelligence flagged the transactions by the United States government. It said that the Bitcoin was from the Silk Road marketplace, and was ultimately moved to America’s biggest digital asset exchange after a brief stop at another Bitcoin wallet. Ultimately, 19,800 BTC—or $1.92 billion worth—was transferred.

Feds shut down the Silk Road online black market back in 2014. The platform was widely used to buy illegal drugs and services—often with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
