On May 13, Ross Ulbricht—yes, that Ross, the original Silk Road ringleader and collector of federal charges—dropped the bombshell that he’s peeling out of Arizona to parts unknown. Ross bravely announced he’s auctioning off some very special memorabilia: personally hand-selected artifacts from his life pre-orange jumpsuit, plus a few souvenirs from Club Fed. Marie Kondo, eat your heart out.
Turning the Page
After receiving a VIP Get Out of Jail Free Card from President Trump (proof that 2024 bingo is totally wild), Ulbricht logged onto X (formerly known as “Twitter, still known as a mess”) to announce his dramatic Arizona exit—destination unknown, like a crypto wallet after a really bad phishing attack. His words? “I’ve left AZ, the state where I was in prison. It’s time to travel,” he posted. Translation: New adventures, new passive-aggressive TSA patdowns!
He added:
I’ve decided to auction some personal items from before my arrest & during my time in prison. I don’t need the reminders & I’m sure some of you will love to have them.
Yes, that’s right, you too could own a curated piece of “Ross: The Origin Story.” In the Scarce City collection, you’ll find relics from two full cinematic eras: a djembe drum (for spontaneous jam sessions in awkward social circles), actual prison-made artwork (move over, Bob Ross), a backpack from before-the-dawn raids, a real cell lock, honest-to-goodness institutional ID cards, and a notebook from the inside. The auction, in classic Netflix cliffhanger style, ends on May 29.
Thinking of bidding? You’ll need to pony up a 1% deposit upfront, because even the criminal underworld has escrow now, apparently. If you want ALL THE POWER (one Satoshi to rule them all), you can unlock “Satoshi Mode” for a 0.01 BTC deposit. Fast track to frenzied FOMO bidding across every lot—because who among us doesn’t want institutional ID as a conversation starter?
Winners must pay by June 2—no pressure, but Scarce City’s timer waits for no man (or pardon). In the meantime, Ulbricht will emerge from the shadows for a special appearance at the Bitcoin 2025 Las Vegas conference. It’s his first public outing since, well, prison. As for those auction items, as they scatter into the wide hands of collectors and people who probably own way too many Funko Pops, it’s a whole new chapter. The bids are flowing, the memorabilia is flying, and somewhere out there, Antiques Roadshow just got a very weird email. 🤷♀️🤑
