They say a week is a long time in politics. In crypto, this last week has been as eventful as many can remember, even in the context of the volatility that has been a cornerstone of crypto’s story since its inception.
In a remarkable story, authorities in the US had recovered over 50,000 Bitcoin in November 2021, then worth a whopping $3.6bn, that had been misappropriated ten years ago on the Silk Road dark web marketplace. Last week they issued a state y confirming that one James Zhong had plead guilty to unlawfully obtaining it in 2012.
