To the many of you affected by the attacks: we are committed to repaying every satoshi stolen by narco93 and others. Continue sending any evidence you discover on narco93/ketama, your input has been very useful in the investigation. From the relaunch date until now, all commission fees have been directly diverted towards people whose lives are in danger due to the sudden financial loss. We are very tight on funds, but based on current transaction volume all of the users in dangerous situations should be repaid by Sunday/Monday range. Once all users in danger are repaid, we will activate direct repayment to users. Any time a purchase is shipped on Silk Road, the sales commission fee will immediately be deposited into a random attack victim's balance. This fee will be subtracted from Pending Balance, and added to the withdrawable Balance. Vendors with high pending balances will be slightly prioritized, but the repayment algorithm is a randomized approach. We will publish a weekly update each Sunday on progress towards repaying all users, as well as a projected date for everyone to be completely repaid at the current week's transaction volume. Each time your account receives a commission fee, Pending Balance in your account will be converted into a withdrawable Balance of the same amount received by the fee. If you do not have a Pending Balance, your Pending Escrow will be converted into regular Escrow. Current purchases no longer use Escrow, our entire market is finalize-early until a reliable distributed escrow solution is implemented. Escrow only exists for old orders, and will continue behave in the same way it always has. Staff is committed to resolving all outstanding disputes until no Escrow wallets exist throughout the entire system. Then we will disable Escrow functionality completely. Way more sales are occurring than we expected. Thank you for fighting past this with us. Your purchases are making a huge impact. The more we work together, the quicker we can redeem this difficult situation. Keep the Road strong.
