so now its over 100K coins they have?
http://blockchain.info/address/1FfmbHfnpaZjKFvyi1okTjJJusN455paPH 144,336.39692843 BTC
http://blockchain.info/address/1F1tAaz5x1HUXrCNLbtMDqcw6o5GNn4xqX 29,657.49172471 BTC
Now the questions that remain are:
Is this the next target?
https://blockchain.info/address/1933phfhK3ZgFQNLGSDXvqCn32k2buXY8a 111,114.60035823 BTC
As there are suspicions that 1933phfhK3ZgFQNLGSDXvqCn32k2buXY8a is also related to SilkRoad / DPR
and
Would there be a "libertarian panic" over the fear that the state will suddenly dump a large amount of BTC?
Technically, if this ever became a real threat (if they had, say, 10+% of coins), consensus could be reached to just block all transactions from known Gov't public addresses... I don't see what much they could do with 2% of available coins, beyond very briefly crash the market. These actions would:
(1) Cost them $$$. They wouldn't get max dollar for liquidating their bitcoins if they just drove the price down.
(2) It would be completely transparent to everyone! They couldn't secretly do this. Everyone in the public would know, and it'd be a PR disaster... The beauty of the Bitcoin protocol is that they can't hide what they do with these funds.
I seriously doubt that there would be anywhere close to the consensus needed to block any particular group of addresses by means of hard fork since that would destroy the fundamental economic value of Bitcoin.
Here is a thread thread that explains why this is such a terrible idea. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/brainstorm-implications-of-blacklisting-dprs-seized-bitcoins-308106

We pushing back through $200 tonight? Quick, but consistent, recovery.

Yup, they'll get liquidated at auction probably in several years.. Might cause a sudden drop of a few % at that time, but it wouldn't be different than the 30% daily swings we're already used to.
It's 1% of the market. Not 10% / 15%. Not going to put on my tinfoil hat over it...

Any proof those are SR's earnings?
And why in blocks of 324 BTC, seems to be a completely arbitrary number?
324 = fbi

Off topic but Bitcoin related:
Anyone here watch White Collar in the U.S? The newest episode was quite interesting.
"The team has arrested Brendan "Three Time" Holland, who ran Grey Trade, a black market version of ebay. The plan is to keep the site up and running for a few days to go after sellers. They will pose as buyers and outbid everyone so they aren't allowing illegal transactions to continue."
I guess the writers saw the SilkRoad news lol.

Anyone ever caught themselves sleep trading? I think I may have done it last night. Don't ask. It was draw. I gained or lost nothing to mention. But I swear I was asleep at the time of the transactions.
No, but I anxiously awaken now at 5:30am everyday with an irresistible urge to check the Bitstamp price on my phone.
Thanks China..

this stock exchange bell sound hunted me into my dreams.
