So they DIDN'T seize it then did they.
Somebody is going to feel really stupid when this guy gets out of jail and then the bitcoin is moved out of that wallet a few days later.
lol, you can't steal bitcoin from someone without a seed AND password.
BTC is secure against common theft.
As most Bitcoiners already know, the currency is stored in digital wallets that are secured through encryption. A password can be used as a decryption key to open a wall and, when a password is lost or forgotten, a wallet can't be opened.
Maybe. If the guy has half a brain he generated the keys from a recovery phrase, so the wallet is irrelevant and can can be erased. He just needs the recovery phrase and nothing more.
