“Since November 2011, law enforcement agents have made over 100 undercover purchases of illegal substances from Silk Road vendors, both from and shipped to the Southern District of New York, including heroin, ecstasy, and cocaine. The document states that their samples, which came from 10 different countries, ‘have been laboratory-tested and have typically shown high purity levels.’ At the time of Ulbricht’s arrest, there were 13,000 listings for controlled substances on Silk Road. If you’d like to claim some of the bitcoins as your own, you can do that easily enough at the hearings. Good luck proving your transaction was one of the legal ones.”
