I’m also wondering why a full pardon rather than a commutation.

Trump team wants his help running crypto shenanigans

That's transparently obvious if you read the press release: Trump analogizes his own personal treatment by the Justice Department with that of Ulbricht c.f. "weaponization of the justice system".

I am curious if this matters for the purposes of the Bitcoin "damages". By today's exchange rates it could be an insane amount of money. If the "crime" is supposed to be wiped clean as if he never did it, then in theory it would mean give him back his property, etc. I don't know the specifics about that or if it would change with respect to clemency or commuting of a sentence.

This is the only explanation that makes sense to me.

Seriously? What a weird suggestion, crypto now has nothing to do with crypto back when he was running Silk road, and there are tons of crypto bros to pick from if the Trump team wanted someone to help run "their crypto shenanigans". I don't think anyone involved in crypto back in 2013 could've seen how much of a mess it would become anyways

It seems that crypto then and now are pretty similar, mess wise.

Does he need help? They've already released two nonsense meme coins to bilk their followers and crypto people hoping to time the dump correctly.
