The U.S. government seeks to confiscate 127,000 BTC that originated from LuBian Mining operations, which were stolen as early as 2020.

On October 14, db released an update stating that "the 127,271 Bitcoins (approximately $14 billion) sought for forfeiture by the U.S. government actually came from the LuBian Mining operation run by the defendant CHEN ZHI, and were in fact stolen back in 2020. These Bitcoins have remained idle since then. Unless some sort of counterfeit hacker event occurs, they are unlikely to get these coins."
