- bradleyjg 9y ago$8.5 million. Note that he isn't contesting the sale.
- RandomInteger4 9y agoHypothetically, assuming he did contest the sale and Bitcoin went up, they would have to give him back the amount of bitcoin that they sold, since technically Bitcoin is an asset and not a currency in the eyes of the government, correct?
- bradleyjg 9y agoI don't think so. If he contested it there'd be a hearing on the motion and either judge would allow the sale to go forward or he wouldn't. If the sale did go forward, and the defendant won at trial, he would still only get the $8.5 plus interest, regardless of what bitcoin prices did in the meanwhile. I'm not sure what the legal standard is for this motion though.
