The article discusses Donald Trump's fulfillment of his promise to pardon Ross Ulbricht, the Silk Road founder, albeit later than initially stated. The author reflects on the significance of Silk Road, including its impact on the drug trade and his personal journey into writing about Bitcoin. He argues that Ulbricht's life sentence represents a miscarriage of justice and emphasizes that Trump's motivations may not align with true reform, yet acknowledges that Ulbricht's eventual freedom is a positive outcome.
Even if you believe he is guilty of everything he's been convicted of (all non-violent crimes), over a decade behind bars should be long enough.
That Ulbricht was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison was a miscarriage of justice in my view.
