Because he has a whole bunch of stashed crypto. And I mean a whole bunch.

You have to wonder what evidence he has on Trump or his associates.

Likely customers among family and friends.

That's what I'm thinking.

Because he (allegedly) has billions in bitcoin.

yabbatron.bsky.social•42 days ago

His main trading currency was crypto. There is no allegedly.

andyroz.bsky.social•42 days ago

Yeh, just not sure how much he has. I've heard millions, and in other places billions.

yabbatron.bsky.social•42 days ago

I'd say it's safe to assume it's in the billions.
In 2015 when he was sentenced, Bitcoin was $430.
Now it is over $162 000.
He traded over $200 million worth the drugs back in the early 2010's. Moat of which was done with crypto.
