Coinbase Director Discovers 430 Bitcoin Wallets Linked to Ross Ulbricht Now Worth $47 million

On January 22nd, Conor Grogan, director of product strategy and business operations at Coinbase, tweeted that he had found about 430 bitcoins in multiple wallets associated with Ross Ulbricht, which have not been confiscated by the US government and have not been moved for more than 13 years. These wallets may have been "dust wallets" at the time, but now their total value has reached about $47 million. He also joked that he wasn't sure if Ross still had the private keys to the wallets, and reminded him not to forget to check the airdrop rewards.
