One such "idiot" would be Judge Montali, who (after ridiculing and thoroughly rubbishing your "follow the money" logic) denied the motion to attach.
So you say his "service" could create value worth way more than 3000 Bitcoins? I wonder how you get to that conclusion. If he would have known investors that would invest 30,000 Bitcoins, then 3000 Bitcoins would be a high reward still, but understandable. But he never had the ability or a standing big enough to justify that payment.
And TSMC? They did not take an amount that is way beyond a normal payment for them.
I cant see how you can come in and claim that the 3000 Bitcoins were justified. There was nothing he did or could have done that this justified.
And you say Judge Montali believed that he is some bitcoin god with followers in the thousands that would not only pay 3000BTC, no even more so that the payment had a slight justification. If the judge really believes he is such a big figure who deserves that payment then he spoke with the wrong person till now.
You are very confused about who is saying (and claiming, and believing, and justifying, and concluding) what. Please listen to the hearing, then reevaluate in view of the facts and logic therein presented.

Primary sources are our friends; gossip is not.
Guess im not trained enough in hearing english in order to understand this really. Maybe some other reader can write what the file is about? Its long too.
But maybe you can tell why you think that payment is justified. You are the only one yet, i read of, that thinks he could deliver anything near or over 3000Bitcoins worth.
