Ill-gotten Gains; Lummis characterized attempts to sell the US government’s Bitcoin holdings as a form of political spite. In an excerpt of the letter provided by Politico, the senator wrote:

“This rushed approach, occurring during the presidential transition period, directly contradicts the incoming administration’s stated policy objectives regarding the establishment of a National Bitcoin Stockpile.”

The potential sale of the Silk Road BTC was given the green light after Judge Richard Seeborg denied a petition to block the asset forfeiture.
