Hmm. In Swedish media the prosecutor has conceded that it was a misstake and that it was done due to lack of expertise about crypto currency [0]. I'm guessing that it's fairly common that prosecutors "förverkar" regular goods (like watches/jewellery/cars) in similar ways, where they claim the physical thing and not the monetary value. BTC and other crypto should probably be treated in this way.
