Is anyone surprised that an anonymous site run by russians wasn't a hive of money laundering?

No I don't think anyone is actually surprised. It's just the timing is conspicuous. The articles state that the FBI had been watching Alexander for months, possibly longer as they were working on the case for a year.

So why move in now?

Why not in January, February, March, April, May, or June?

Oh, right.... "they" were too busy running up the crypto market then.  Wink

Same with moving in on Mt. Gox.... came after the peak. Wink
