Yeah I'm sure they'll find some way to obfuscate the press release and make you wonder what the true numbers are. Government talk takes years to decipher.
i'm not sure we're gonna see much in the way of "results". not from any official channel, anyway, and i think auction participants may be subject to some sort of non-disclosure, as this is a closed auction. could be wrong obviously, but that was my impression.
Until those other coins go on auction, we won't know for certain that they do have control over them. They might be "seized" in the sense that Ulbricht won't have access to them, but it doesn't necessarily mean they've got the keys and can move the coins.
The goobermint has control of them - they have them in their wallet and they have the private keys. We know this because they have moved them, twice.
Old news, just joining this thread in case there are more updates on Monday.
Dang the price didn't bottom out... now what are the chicken littles gonna discuss?
Keep that train a rollin... we've got the future of btc currency to discuss.

I vote for a premium. Since you don't have to wire fund to UK or Russia.
I've been on Bitcointalk for a long time. I never posted until recently.
Just because you say something doesn't make it true.
But anyways I look forward to the auction results.
I lied.
I only learned of Bitcoin 2 weeks ago.
Should I find some accounts from 2011? Would that suffice?
I am such a newb.
Then stop.
I would, except I like irritating the easily offended.
Okey, dokey!
There is value to that.
I've been on Bitcointalk for a long time. I never posted until recently. I was stoned a few weeks ago and made an account. Hence the "Sometimes I get really stoned...and I troll" under my name. lol
I don't use social media or forums very much. I've never used Facebook, never even had an account. They are compulsive time wasters.
I spend too much time on this forum lately. I need to stop.

lol I've only joined the discussion just now.
I've had the impression long ago.
Gotcha.
I expect a fairly decent move upward this week.
Nothing insane, but $625-$675 is definitely possible.
Then again, wtf do I know?
The move to follow will only be the start.
July will be a good month all around.
I think this is one of the catalysts people are waiting for.
Now the US government is legitimizing the value of Bitcoin by selling them for $.
I would not be surprised if the final auction results/numbers were far far higher than the market price is.

You're just now coming to to this realization?

I have a feeling that once the sales price is announced it could trigger some big movement in bitcoin market price... Especially if the btc sells for over $18m total.
Get ready and buy now before something bad happens, maybe the prices will drop a little, but give it time and for july our investment numbers will be green.

Anyone who buys those US Marshall Bitcoins is going to be TRACKED in the blockchain by the Feds, NSA, etc. I recommend LAUNDERING those coins pronto
You don't think they are doing their level best to track everything anyway?
You are right of course.

He dove for his laptop as they approached him, trying to shut it down. It was truecrypted I'm sure. The Feds put a flash drive in there specially made to capture volatile memory. They're not dumb. His encryption key was obviously in volatile memory, so they got his wallet.
He SHOULD have had most of those bitcoins stored in multiple encrypted flashdrives geocached in the ground. Would have saved him 20 bullion bucks

How accurate is the source and this info? I thought it was 30k btc up for auction, how did there end up being almost 50k?
Considering who @barrysilbert is, I think we can trust this info.
Regarding your other question:

a bid does not mean a block. just means different price
