The US
government said on Monday it plans to auction over 2,700 bitcoin that
were forfeited during several cases, including the prosecution of the
creator of the online black market known as Silk Road.
The US
Marshals Service said that the online auction would be held on August
22, and that potential bidders must register by August 18.
The bitcoin
are worth nearly $16.1 million, according to the Bitstamp exchange.
