Comment on Here’s who probably did that $150 million Bitcoin transaction

Comments

I haven't been following closely, but could it have been the FBI transferring Silk Road funds to their own address? Given the timing that seems to make sense.

They've always tagged the seized coins either with 'Silkroad seized coins' or 'DPR seized coins' in the past. e.g. https://blockchain.info/address/1F1tAaz5x1HUXrCNLbtMDqcw6o5G...

Who did the tagging?

Users of blockchain.info. It's a little obvious, the amounts they transferred are "FBI" when typed on a phone keyboard.
