Mitnick's sentence was ~5 years. Under the sentencing guidelines, Ulbricht will almost undoubtedly spend most if not all of the rest of his life in federal prison. He isn't trying to "milk his fame some more" - he is simply fighting for his life. He has nothing to lose by grasping at straws and exhausting all of his post-conviction options, so I don't fault him for trying.
