According to Bloomberg, approximately 127,000 BTC previously seized by the U.S. government are now in asset forfeiture proceedings in the U.S. District Court in New York. Dozens of claimants have filed ownership claims, including those asserting themselves or their family members as victims of terrorist attacks, as well as applicants claiming that the relevant Bitcoin may have been mined at an Iranian mining farm. Chen Zhiyi, who has been accused by U.S. prosecutors of being the head of a criminal organization, claims that these Bitcoins belong to him personally and requests the government to clarify how they were obtained. Hundreds of court documents related to this BTC case have been filed, and a final ruling will be made by a federal judge.
