Silk Road Arrests In Seattle, Britain, Sweden As Crackdown Continues
The takedown of the underground drug market Silk Road was apparently just the beginning. Since then, authorities have arrested Silk Road customers and dealers in Seattle, the UK, and Sweden—and promise more to come.
Meanwhile, the FBI is attempting to track down the Silk Road Bitcoin fortune. They've seized about 26,000 Bitcoins belonging to Silk Road customers but are still searching for over 600,000 Bitcoins—$80 million—Ulbricht himself is believed to have amassed while running Silk Road, according to the Guardian.

The idea has been around since the early 90s. Bitcoin and Silk Road are just the first viable implementations.
