Ato nuk vlenin shum\u00eb n\u00eb at\u00eb koh\u00eb. Por n\u00eb koh\u00ebn kur ishte n\u00eb kolegj, ai konvertoi nj\u00eb pjes\u00eb t\u00eb pasuris\u00eb s\u00eb tij dixhitale n\u00eb 700,000 dollar\u00eb n\u00eb para. Ai donte t\u00eb kishte nj\u00eb \u2018jet\u00eb plot me para si n\u00eb filma\u2019, tha Zhong, sipas nj\u00eb vler\u00ebsimi psikologjik t\u00eb paraqitur n\u00eb gjykat\u00eb.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAi shpresonte se t\u00ebrheqja vizuale e parave do t’i b\u00ebnte p\u00ebrshtypje nj\u00eb femre q\u00eb t\u00eb kishte marr\u00ebdh\u00ebnie seksuale me t\u00eb. Ai tha se plani i tij nuk funksionoi.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

P\u00ebr pes\u00eb vjet pas vjedhjes s\u00eb \u2018Silk Road\u2019, Zhong nisi t\u00eb shpenzonte thesarin e tij dixhital. N\u00eb vitin 2017, ai nisi nj\u00eb seri shpenzimesh prej 16 milion\u00eb dollar\u00ebsh, shumica e t\u00eb cilave i shpenzoi duke u p\u00ebrpjekur t\u00eb fitonte miq, sipas dokumenteve t\u00eb gjykat\u00ebs dhe avokatit t\u00eb tij, Michael Bachner.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zhong dha 258 bitcoin, shum\u00eb prej tyre n\u00eb pajisje dixhitale secila e ngarkuar me 50 bitcoin dhe tani me vler\u00eb af\u00ebr 1.5 milion\u00eb dollar\u00eb. Ai i priste miqt\u00eb n\u00eb aeroplan\u00eb dhe varka me qira, n\u00eb gara sportive dhe n\u00eb hotele luksoze, sipas dokumenteve t\u00eb gjykat\u00ebs dhe Clayton Kemker, nj\u00eb ish-shit\u00ebs i bonove q\u00eb u b\u00eb partneri i biznesit t\u00eb Zhong.<\/span><\/p>\n

Disa nga sendet e gjetura gjat\u00eb kontrollit t\u00eb n\u00ebntorit 2021 n\u00eb sht\u00ebpin\u00eb e James Zhong p\u00ebrfshinin 661,900 dollar\u00eb para cash.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zhong b\u00ebri gabimin e tij t\u00eb madh m\u00eb 16 dhjetor 2020, sipas t\u00eb dh\u00ebnave t\u00eb gjykat\u00ebs dhe nj\u00eb analize t\u00eb transaksioneve t\u00eb tij me bitcoin nga Elliptic. Ai kombinoi fondet e kriptove q\u00eb IRS kishte lidhur me vjedhjet e \u2018Silk Road\u2019 me fondet e ligjshme q\u00eb mbante n\u00eb nj\u00eb shk\u00ebmbim kriptomonedhash.<\/span><\/p>\n

Me lidhjen e \u2018Silk Road\u2019 t\u00eb Zhong n\u00eb dor\u00eb, autoritetet shkuan n\u00eb shk\u00ebmbimin e bitcoin q\u00eb trajtoi transaksionin. Shk\u00ebmbimi u dha agjent\u00ebve t\u00eb IRS nj\u00eb adres\u00eb IP, 45.20.67.1, dhe ofruesi i sh\u00ebrbimit t\u00eb internetit t\u00eb Zhong konfirmoi se ai kishte p\u00ebrdorur at\u00eb adres\u00eb q\u00eb nga viti 2016. Nj\u00eb muaj m\u00eb von\u00eb, agjent\u00ebt federal\u00eb kontrolluan sht\u00ebpin\u00eb e Zhong dhe gjet\u00ebn pajisjet e ruajtjes dixhitale q\u00eb ndihmuan mbyllni hetimin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Qeveria sekuestroi m\u00eb shum\u00eb se 50,000 bitcoin nga Zhong, t\u00eb cilat n\u00eb at\u00eb koh\u00eb kishin vler\u00eb 3.36 miliard\u00eb dollar\u00eb. Nj\u00eb z\u00ebdh\u00ebn\u00ebs i Departamentit t\u00eb Drejt\u00ebsis\u00eb nuk pranoi t\u00eb komentoj\u00eb mbi rastin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zhong dhe Kemker kishin planifikuar nj\u00eb zhvillim t\u00eb pasurive t\u00eb paluajtshme q\u00eb do t\u00eb p\u00ebrfshinte 340 apartamente, nj\u00eb magazin\u00eb 5 mij\u00eb metra katror\u00eb \u00a0p\u00ebr shitje me pakic\u00eb dhe nj\u00eb bar n\u00eb \u00e7ati n\u00eb Memphis, Tennessee.

Partneriteti me Zhong i kushtoi atij kursimet e jet\u00ebs, tha Kemker.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAi nuk dinte si t\u00eb lundronte n\u00eb bot\u00ebn e biznesit. Ai thjesht dinte kodimin dhe teknologjin\u00eb.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
