Lol classic government action...
The punishment for the silk road guys(was it owner/operator?) was a bit extreme, obviously they were trying to send a message, and of course it was pretty much BS. Easy to see coming with the agenda that is pushed though.
If someone was to buy this bitcoin, would they eventually be able to conceal it's whereabouts? Maybe just buy some monero with it? haha, not that I care, I can't put 200k down to buy a tenth of a BTC ;)
Yeah, you'd have to trade it elsewhere but there would still be a record. You could tumble it, I guess.
