Silk Road Creator Ross Ulbricht Is Waiting for Trump to Keep His Word-and Set Him Free
Briefly

"Immense gratitude to everyone who voted for President Trump on my behalf. I trust him to honor his pledge and give me a second chance," Ulbricht wrote on X.
"After 11+ years in darkness, I can finally see the light of freedom at the end of the tunnel. Thank you so much, @realDonaldTrump. 🙏"
At the Libertarian National Convention this May, then-presidential candidate Trump promised to commute Ulbricht's sentence 'on day one' if reelected, letting him walk free.
There were cheers from the audience - many waving 'Free Ross' signs - for the former dark web mastermind, who has become a cause célèbre in the cryptocurrency and libertarian worlds.
