Donald Trump’s return to the White House has reignited discussions about Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, and his potential release. It is a highly controversial move as the convict is charged with narcotics but Trump has promised in his election campaign to set him free. Ross Ulbricht has also hinted that he will be freed in January last year after Trump won the election in Nov.

However, Elon Musk has confirmed that Ulbricht’s sentence will be commuted soon, with reports suggesting a formal announcement could come within 24 to 48 hours.
