So how did they exactly "seize" it?

Normies are retardio 😂

We thank them for their gift.

What did they seize, a public key? 😅😂

Maybe they seized a signing device which they can't read the key off of, or they destroyed all usable copies of the private key in the process of seizing the public key.

Hilarious 😂

The guy it was seized from claims he wrote the private keys on a piece of paper, which he stored in a case in his garage. This was stolen or thrown out, he says.

As it should be

Love this quote:

“…the CAB has been stuck hoping that technology will catch up and somehow help them break into the wallets.”

They may be waiting for some time…

Exactly the quote I was about to post here. lol

Guy was an OG buying bitcoin in 2010 and hodling. He claims the private keys are on a piece of paper and now lost. Bet he has them memorised 🤣
