I thought they sold all or most of their coins already? I doubt they're interested in manipulating the price either.
Not all of them they sold the batch from the Silk Road they are still in a court case with the operator of Silk Road for the rest

In fact Ross has more lawsuits now

Ulbricht was charged with “narcotics trafficking,” “distribution of narcotics by means of the Internet,” and “conspiracy to traffic fraudulent identification documents” for the first time in a 17-page superseding indictment filed by Attorney Preet Bhararra on Thursday. The indictment also listed Ulbricht’s original four charges—participation in narcotics trafficking conspiracy, continuing criminal enterprise, computer hacking conspiracy, and money laundering conspiracy.
