When he was arrested, the FBI seized Ross' Bitcoin account. Interestingly, some of the FBI agents involved in Ross' capture were eventually arrested for stealing some of Ross' seized Bitcoins and trying to sell them privately. But that's a whole other story. Ross also fought to keep the coins, but a judge ruled against him.
Once the monetary judgment came down, the FBI got approval to sell off Ross' entire Bitcoin account. The sale netted $48 million.
