> Will be interesting to see how this announcement effects the price of bitcoins.

That's what people asked last time when, if I remember correctly, the FBI was selling off some of the Silk Road coins. Nothing really happened, maybe a few percent drop, but that happens every day so I'm not even sure that was due to the sell.

To add more context, a well-known investor who happens to have significant influence ended up buying those bitcoins.
