It is also possible that after the identified Dread Pirate Roberts of Silk Road 1.0 they traced a connection from him to the Silk Road 2.0 DPR says that only he knew the identity... but when did he set it up how often did they communicate and did he leave any trace?

I never believed the story of how DPR was originally identified. It is standard practice for intelligence agencies and sometimes police to hide their sources through parallel construction. They really find something out one way- then, after the fact, figure out all the ways they could plausibly have gotten the same information and say that is how they got the information. To make it more believable they can actually run the script and gather the info a second time in a manner that doesn't reveal their sources.

//We all know nuclear weapons will never get used//

Historically that is not true.
The 1st nukes developed were developed by the US, the 1st thing they did with them was use them on Japan. Perhaps you meant it as a statement of hope about the future... I hope you are right, but there is a whole lot of future. The smart money is on them being used again at some point. Can't possibly imagine a scenario when someone might use them again? Let me help out the lack of imagination: say someone is stupid enough to pick a big fight with a country that has them thinking that they'll never use them.. or a country that has them finds itself in a war with a powerful military that doesn't have them- or a civil war breaks out and one faction has control of the nukes and fill in the blank. Nukes probably will be used again and it probably won't be the end of the world as we know it, but it could.

From the article “make sure that it’s receiving at least 3 bars of service” The words “at least” worry me here. That seems to imply some had 3 bars and some had 5. Since signal strength is often tied to network speed and how much power the radio needs to communicate with the towers this alone makes the results suspect. A carrier with 5 bars is going to have a huge advantage over one with 3. Maybe they misspoke and really they all had the same number of bars... even then I'd think they'd have to run a speed test as well since those bars are phone service bars not 3G/4G/LTE/whatever bars.

Yes I read the post, and he is investing the loan.

Say I earn $1,000 dollars a month and that I also spend $1,000 a month. If someone gives me $1,000 dollars and a month I subsequently spend $1,000 on non-living expenses then which $1,000 dollars did I spend; the $1,000 I earn or the $1,000 given to me. Get my point? The correct answer is the $1,000 dollars given to me. It doesnt which $1,000 dollars I purport to have spent nor does it matter which physical bills I used. The fact or the matter is that if I had not been given the $1,000 I wouldnt have been able to spend $1,000 dollars on non-living expenses.
