I never saw the number, what was DPR net worth when this all came to a crashing halt? I assume 10's of millions of dollars

Also - was that money recovered by the FBI or could they not find his private keys?

I think the peak number in the spreadsheet for the value of SR was $104M -- I can't remember the source, but that figure stood out.

The FBI had no problem finding his keys because he kept them in a folder called, "Keys" -- the kid was not an OpSec genius..
