Blake Benthall, former Silk Road operator, revisits the scene of the crime
Briefly

"I guess I'm resurrected," said Benthall, who is still religious. This sentiment encapsulates his journey from being a convicted criminal to pursuing a new career in tech.
After his arrest, Benthall spent two weeks in solitary confinement in Oakland and eight months in federal jail in New York. His journey reflects the profound changes he experienced during this period.
Benthall's current venture, Fathom(x), aims to verify crypto assets for businesses and government, marking a departure from his past involvement with Silk Road 2.0.
Now Benthall, 36, is back in the tech world, doing what he initially set out to do in his career: Launch a (legal) tech company.
