soo... the SBR dreams are all dead, and the U.S. gov doesn't have the bitcoin...?

In March, we filed a FOIA request for the amount of bitcoin held by the US Marshal Service. Today, we publish the USMS answer to our FOIA request, as well as the list of bitcoin it holds, totaling 28,988.35643016 BTC.

That's less than one-tenth of the 200k BTC estimated in U.S. gov possession. Where tha hell did the btc go... and who's been lying, and what are we missing??

Needlessly Pedantic Man here. That is in fact more than one-tenth of 200k BTC.

So China is the world leader with around 200k BTC and Russia next with around 100k-200k. But now Strategy and BlackRock have huge numbers over 600k each. I don't feel good knowing BlackRock controls so much BTC and is also a shareholder of Saylor's Strategy B.

reply

Well then you should feel good hearing that BlackRock doesn't control that bitcoin! A good clean world again for you.

Only 29k BTC held by USMS? That’s a huge gap from the 200k everyone assumed. Either it was sold off, hidden under other agencies, or something shady happened. That $10k payment to Bailey makes it even more suspicious. More FOIA requests needed.
