edit: The best the defense came up with was along the lines of "you can't trust digital evidence, because hackers", going as far as implying that DPR having a BitTorrent client running was opening his machine up to be hacked and evidence to be planted.
source?
So, I guess he will be in jail for the rest of his life, correct?
No one knows yet, he's yet to be sentenced.

"Ulbricht's arrest and conviction -- and our seizure of millions of dollars of Silk Road bitcoins -- should send a clear message to anyone else attempting to operate an online criminal enterprise," read a statement from U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara. "The supposed anonymity of the dark web is not a protective shield from arrest and prosecution."
Cool, this means we don't need any special regulations and anti-anonymity laws? Right?
Btw, can he still appeal?
So, Andreas was not there ?
I think the judge didn't want him because he didn't have the "credentials" to be there. We don't exactly have bitcoin "professionals" yet...
Then why was he invited by the Canadian Senate ?

What I found most interesting was the comment by the US Attorney that the "supposed anonymity" of the Dark Web won't protect us from the government.
I am surprised how fast this trial went, did his lawyers even try?
I hope he didn't pay for them.

So he took the fall for it. We can't really know if he was DPR or not.
I highly doubt that he was the only and main person behind Silk Road.

Considering how the trial went, this outcome was completely to be expected.
