scammers making a business seem legitimate so that more and more people would join. once they reach what they believe their peak is, they run off with the money.
apparently it's supposed to mean LE or a group of people trying to trap you, but not necessarily a scam.

Ah, yeah, the latter is correct. But I'm also sure that would be entrapment. The Feds had unnoticed access to the initial SR site, so I don't understand why they wouldn't've just kept that running and picked off DPR later and/or installed their own DPR.

i guess the definition of honeypot is different from what i thought it was.
Nope, I’m afraid to tell you it's not a pot full of honey
. What did you think it was?

I knew Silk Road 2.0 was some sort of honey pot.
you are probably thinking of the sheep marketplace.
Sheep Marketplace was definitely not a honeypot. Instead it was being run by a scammer. On the other hand, we have enough proof to believe that SR 2.0 was a honeypot.
What proof is that?

I don't think that was a honeypot either, but the owner apparently scammed everyone in a longcon.

Except it's probably not. SR is fine, they just seem to have busted people moderators via the forum, which is on a different server and not as secure. Pretty sure setting up a honeypot like a new SR site would be entrapment, and I don't see why they'd go to the fuss of creating a new site when they had already gained access to the old one. Would've been easier to just keep that running and pick people off gradually.

Well Satoshi Nakamoto did not think of that when he was creating his project 
Or maybe he/she wanted to do it this way 
Or maybe he/she wanted to do it this way Or maybe Satoshi is DPR, we can't know
Yea one way or another i want to make BTC at market. If all this BTC is not connected to any banks or gov i will be happy to buy more BTC !
Or maybe Satoshi is DPR, we can't know
That is a ridiculous argument, which has been dealt with before. Satoshi was an intelligent programmer and statistician. DPR was more or less intelligent, but he has no background in statistics and economics.

After reading a bunch of articles about DPR and how he carried himself (and how he finally got caught), I can easily confirm that he's not Satoshi. Not even by a long shot...

Or maybe he/she wanted to do it this way Well I'm sure he was smart enough to invision it. If you're going to create a currency and hope for it to be successful, then people are going to use it for all sorts of things good and bad. He did originally mention seeing it possibly becoming useful to libertarians.

What about this?
Sometimes I really doubt for whom these law enforcement agencies are working for. I think the Mexican drug smugglers are funding them, as their business have been hit hard by SR 2.0 and other online black markets.

I was never a member of Silk Road myself, but wouldn't members (and especially mods) want to stay away from any iteration of the official Silk Road? Wouldn't they want to jump ship and participate on a or many new sites that were built as competitors (and I guess replacements) to Silk Road?
Why? Silk Road has the rep... it's essentially a brand now. Plus, it takes a lot of time for people to trust these other markets that spring up. People were even paranoid about the new SR being a honeypot, but I'd probably have more trust in a new incarnation of SR than a brand new site coming out of nowhere.
