fuck Woodrow Wilson for creating the federal reserve. he was the worst president in US History.

that's what I always tell people when they ask me who the shittiest president in US history was.

Don't understand this one.

Didn't Pay Attention to IP Addresses

Using a VPN server was an obvious and smart move on Ulbricht's part. However, the agent still determined a connection existed between the IP address used to log in one final time to the VPN server, and the IP address that Ulbricht used to log in to his Gmail account (in or around the San Francisco cafe he frequented). If you can't sort out the obscuring of IP addresses, don't get into virtual drug dealing.

If it weren't for SR I certainly wouldn't have had enjoyed the indirect access to the interesting RC's I've experimented with the past few years, & it certainly was an interesting & promising experiment in counter-economics. I'll have to agree however, this guy should have tried harder in covering his tracks, & it would appear to me that he definitely set himself up when he turned a mutually beneficial system into an excuse to employ violence over a loss in his profit margin. He got too close to the sun.

exactly! it sounds like he's a brilliant guy (to some degree) but got too full of himself. It almost sounds like he was being cocky.

I mean, not even withholding your time zone? come on dude

If nothing else at least thank him for hooking up literally thousands of people with drugs.  If your friend introduces you to a new weed dealer you smoke him out and thank him.  This guy sacrificed his LIFE to hook thousands of strangers up because he believed in it.  Have some fucking respect.

That stuff is all well and good, but no amount of money or hooking thousands of people up with drugs would be enough for me to have someone killed. He should have just walked out then with his millions, but instead was all about the $$$ and tried to have a man killed. A man that was someones son, husband, father, brother . . .

What kind of person kills someone over drugs/money? A greedy piece of shit that's who.



Thats not why he did it...

Actually it is. apparently you have not read the criminal complaint on him. Someone was blackmailing him,it was the feds although he did no know this at the time. They posed as a SR user and told him they hacked into the server and got all kinds of info about the mebers, and that he would release the info unless Ross paid him 500,000. Instead of paying him to keep him quiet he tried to put a hit on him. The same feds made a different name posing as the blackmailers dealers, and under that guise offered the hitman service. I do not remember exactly how much the feds charged him, but it was about the third of what the blackmailer was asking. He even tried to haggle his way down to 80,000 saying how he had a hit put out before and it only cost him 80,000

He may have started out with good intentions, but he got corrupted by the money and/or power and turned into a piece of shit.

I heard all that, but didn't know that both of the users were FBI.

You sure about that? if thats true, thats rather funny.

I mean, why would a real SR user have tried to blackmail the dread pirate? the users probably made sssooooo much money. Why ruin a good thing?

Yeah, one of the SR vendors had gotten busted from real world mistakes. The feds got his addresses of his customers. They sent some addresses to Ross to prove they had info and said they would release thousands of users info unless he paid up

It is all in the criminal complaint, which is pretty long

In a old interview with this DRP that got arrested he says that he was not the founder and cannot take the credit. That someone else made the site and he bought them out. It is possible that the original founder could have created bitcoins, It would make sense
