Trump said he had called Ulbricht's mother to let her know he had granted her son a full pardon.

Donald Trump pardoned the creator of the world’s first dark-web drug market, who is now a libertarian cause célèbre in some parts of the crypto community.

Trump fulfills a key libertarian pledge.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday pardoned Ross Ulbricht, founder of the anonymous marketplace website Silk Road, which the president promised to do on Day 1.

Those who convicted Ulbricht were "some of the same lunatics involved in the modern-day weaponization of government against me," Trump wrote Tuesday.

Polymarket's betting data and Elon Musk's comment suggest that President Trump will be pardoning Ulbricht in his first few days in office.

President Trump did not pardon or commute the prison sentence of Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, despite his promise on the campaign trail to commute his sentence on "day one."

The President's pledge to commute Ulbricht's sentence was notably absent on the first day of Trump's second presidential term.
