Wow, I never noticed the "web" link! That's awesome. Great tip. Thanks.

The bids are not very high yet.

... or the NSA let them have it intentionally. Article not working correctly, bit that's theory.

This is too big and strange to be true. Unless it is, in which case, wow.

I haven't seen anybody claiming all of this is a hoax yet, which is probably because there isn't much evidence either way?

Not sure about their bidding model, bidding is already risky when you're dealing with hackers. Last thing you want is to add more risk and put in BitCoin you won't get back.

Any ideas to the contrary?
