Does this whole story seem fishy to anyone else? The takedown notice has a freaking camel in it (like it is a joke), the only corroborating source is krebs, the government agencies happen to be in a shutdown state and unable to respond for comment, DPRs account was last active at 8:54pm last night (after he was supposedly arrested), and the section of code cited in the notice is for CIVIL forfeiture.

question is, how will the btc price react?
Exactly! That's what I'm worried about. I just hope that mainstream adoption has surpassed the adoption of criminals and drug dealers. LOL!
Otherwise its time to SELL! SELL! SELL!
As much as I want it to go down, so I can stock up on a bunch of coins, it wouldn't. The price is too stable once VC's are in the economy we are pretty strong.
Lets hope so.

There are many whales waiting for a bottom to invest. There were pretty big news regarding investment opportunities in Bitcoin recently. I think the price will probably go down on this news, but not that much. I'm not telling you not to sell anyway.

There's already Atlantis though I'm not sure if its still in service. I visited those sites out of curiosity a couple times.
Never actually bought anything though I did eventually want to sell some clothing on there. I liked the idea of a really free market. Free of restrictions. Too bad someone always has to fuck shit up.

This just opens up a spot in the market, there will be other services which will replace Silk Road. The war on drugs will never be won.

The feds have caught up to the Silk Road. The underground website long known for drug trafficking was seized by the FBI who also arrested the owner on three criminal counts. Prosecutors charged Ross William Ulbricht with one count each of narcotics trafficking conspiracy, computer hacking conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy, according to a court filing.
