Laptop bitcoin wallet, metadata, and traced bitcoin payments

In closing, Turner described a laptop wallet holding about 144,000 bitcoins, valued at approximately $18 million at arrest, and cited transfers from Silk Road server wallets. He matched the wallet file's April 7, 2013 creation date with a log entry about moving a storage wallet to the local machine. He also cited traced payments in attributing alleged murder-for-hire arrangements to Ulbricht, expressly stating that those matters were not charged here and that the government did not contend any murders occurred.
