🚨NEW: New evidence shows that the SDNY/DOJ has likely sold the bitcoin that the Samourai devs paid it as part of their plea deal even though Executive Order 14233 mandates that forfeited bitcoin be held in the U.S.’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

And this wasn’t the first time in the Samourai case that the SDNY acted in defiance of federal orders or guidance.

Theres is a pattern of defiance here.

That's stolen bitcoin. These guys are innocent coders who did a favor to humanity. Those who put them in jail are child raping criminals.

Yes there is a pattern, no it is not new

They don't like money?

*There is

Sooo what are they going to do if they get their hands on Maduro's Sats?? Do we trust them, or Trump & Cronies to be stewards of that much BTC?

Start the polymarket bet for >30% of maduros stash moving wallets in <30 days

According to documents obtained by Bitcoin Magazine, 57.55353033 BTC (~$6.3 M) forfeited by the Samourai Wallet developers as part of their plea deal in November 2025 appears to have been sent directly to a Coinbase Prime address and likely sold, rather than being transferred into the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve as mandated by Executive Order 14233. This would contravene the order’s explicit language that forfeited BTC “shall not be sold” and must be held as reserve assets.

The Samourai prosecution was handled by the Southern District of New York (SDNY), which has been criticized in related court filings for pursuing charges even after FinCEN internally advised that a non‑custodial wallet like Samourai didn’t fit the money‑transmitter definition, and that exculpatory evidence was initially withheld from the defense.

Crazy if true

wtf

not that stealing it and putting it into the SBR would have been much better
