I saw this picture on several Twitter handles and I don't know if this is for real but it's also published on Cointelegraph - From Bat-Signal to Bitcoin: Projecting ‘Orange Pill’ on banks as EU drives crypto regulation
 (https://cointelegraph.com/news/from-bat-signal-to-bitcoin-projecting-orange-pill-on-banks-as-eu-drives-crypto-regulation)
The building is said to be European Central Bank. Based on my understanding (CMIIW), it wasn't really the ECB displayed the image but bitcoin folks there that just flashed it through the building. Sort of misleading but then they've got balls to do it.

It was bitcoin guys doing it as a mild troll but mostly to bring attention to people about bitcoin. Central banks have been screwing us for a very long time. The fractional reserve system is a total scam, a literal ponzi scheme & it’s starting to unravel.

Hopefully many people see the logo & decide to look further into bitcoin & what it can do for them. Fiat banking is under severe pressure, buying bitcoin is a hedge against it.

The building you are seeing is really the European Central Bank in Frankfurt Germany. What I think is that it is a little bit edited to have more contrast and be more visible on the glass. The statement and timing is very good since Bitcoin is preparing its next bulll run in this moment.

At this point, bitcoin is becoming a mainstream currency that will serve as a hedge against the increasing inflation and severe banking crisis where the masses are looking for an alternatives currency Bitcoin is going to be at the centre of most countries' financial regulations in other to save the traditional currency from plug-in deeper losing it value due to constant inflation.

But as a decentralized currency is the hedge against every form of inflation and for secure and free financial life one needs to adopt Bitcoin.

Banks are beginning to think in that direction and those that have flexible financial laws and regulations for cryptocurrency assets are now building view boards many other countries such as El Salvador will soon follow this kind of public display of Bitcoin logos to promote and advocate for its usage.

Something like this is always displayed in public for a reason. For various reasons, I see it as a way for them to raise awareness of bitcoin and encourage people to thoroughly research it in order to avoid becoming a victim of its use. They are centralized banking services, and they cannot do so to their own detriment. Furthermore, portraying this in public encourages people to seek out more information about what they've been asked to study, which could serve as another way to attract people interested in bitcoin.

This Picture is real and it gives a stronger message than the traditional message of "Invest in bitcoins".

As i understand this, Study bitcoins give the message to the world institutions and financial sector to study about bitcoin, its benefit over the fiat currency and how it can be beneficial. We have seen how the banks are collapsing, the inflation is at its peak. In this situation the world needs to study seriously about moving to bitcoin.

Some bitcoiner could've done it without flaw at the right time to seek the attention of the common people who are the hard believers of the banking system. As banks around the world keeps collapsing, people will surely take time and try to understand what it is all about. Similar image got spread throughout the social media platforms when the Silicon Valley Bank got collapsed. It was believed to be real, and later identified as someone have made changes to the real image to create awareness  ;)

I agree with you, Bitcoin is becoming increasingly mainstream and it seems that people are finally starting to realize the potential that this cryptocurrency has as a viable alternative to the traditional financial system. The growing inflation and banking crises are only increasing the need for an alternative and decentralized currency like Bitcoin.

With banks starting to shift their views on cryptocurrencies and embrace this emerging technology, we can expect more countries to follow in the footsteps of El Salvador and promote the use of Bitcoin in their economies. We are in an exciting time for Bitcoin and I can't wait to see what the future holds for this revolutionary currency.

This could also be done to mildly spite the central bank, we all know what and how the banks have been handling our money, the inflations that have been going on for several years now, which as a result have devalued our fiat currencies, causing the prices of things to become really high..

Doing this could mean several things, it could mean a digitalized form of protest against Central Banks, reminding them that there is a new and better currency in town that they(central banks) have no control over , and that they should study bitcoin and know that their days are numbered  - and at the same time, this is also creating bitcoin awareness to the general public, for those who are not aware of what bitcoin is all about, it's a good advice for them to go and study bitcoin.

Wow.  Whoever made this move deserves accolades. Promoting Bitcoin with every opportunity that presents itself is important, especially now that the banking sector is facing some crisis due to its messed up financial policy. 
This creator makes it possible, telling everyone to remove their hope from the banking system and choose Bitcoin instead; study Bitcoin, and you will understand the technology. 
 
Awareness in the heights of it, if not carefully looked at someone might think it was an actual display presented by the bank it's self.  I believe they might possibly be looking for who ever made this flash displayed and also made it public. 

The person who did this really have some balls just like the OP said... I love the idea behind the creativity.
Their are really lots of meaning which can be ready over the pictures.
This can possibly mean "F*ck the banking system" and embrace Bitcoin.

It seems like sarcasm from a person who dislikes bitcoin. we don't have to be enthusiastic to respond, because it would be a boomerang on ourselves. If viral, this will be responded to soon by fiat enthusiasm to face bitcoin OG. This happens many times I see if we if engaged in politic, their target is dumping the price to buy more. I hope we are not provoked, and just relax, this is providing us with if bitcoin is already aligned with fiat.

    What I see is that they want to convey to everyone who will see that bitcoin logo in the communities there in the city that has been done is really giving awareness to the people that Bitcoin is the future that can give opportunity and help us to resolve our financial crisis nowadays.

   That's the thing they have shown and they are not concerned about anything that can be thrown at them just because they want to patronize bitcoin in the business industry matter.

The Bitcoin guys are normally mild trolls. This isn't really violent nor destructive. They cannot equal the bank trolls that have been wreaking havoc to people's lives for a very long time.

Imagine the banks trolling all of us by not giving us the money that we entrust them for custody. These bank trolls are enriching themselves with our money and when we make withdrawals we are even dictated on how much. And then they will also freeze us our very own money with interest. We are even fined for not keeping a certain amount in our deposits. And when there's no activity in our accounts, they would lock our own money. LOL! These banks are hardcore trolls!

Yeah, good to see some bitcoin guy completely trolling those Central Banks, perhaps they are just sending the message to whatever means and hopefully this bankers are not going to take it very seriously though as if there is a war between us vs them.

And I commend that people behind, yeah they got balls to do it and hopefully they won't be caught and who knows, they could be charged by anything the authorities can think of.

I support this initiative and hope people will learn to use bitcoin as an alternative when the banking system is in crisis. But we should not propagate that the banking system is a ponzi, scam and we should use bitcoin against them. We have and will continue to use banking for hundreds of years, it is the backbone of the world economy whether we like it or not. Furthermore, our saying banks are scams is no different from the government calling bitcoin a scam. Everyone has a different point of view, and I prefer both coexisting rather than opposing each other.

Legally this action is not advisable because they don't have permission to display the bitcoin logo in such a sensitive place considering the bank's stance on Bitcoin. Nevertheless, it is a good means of advertising Bitcoin and the world needs to get the message that fiat is not the only currency. Bitcoin is a superior money that outshines fiat in all ramifications. Although this action is not lawful, I still give kudos to these bitcoiners that planned and executed this publicity. We need more of these actions to spread the message of bitcoin so that people can be liberated from the influence of central banks.

Wow, I mean that's a huge advertisement for bitcoin for sure  ;D That is so out of line, I wonder how much this kind of project would cost it would probably be good to do it on other places as well.

These guys are completely trolling banks flashing bitcoin on their own buildings, It would help a lot in opening the eyes of a lot of people on bitcoin and not trusting centralized banks, Most people there probably don't know anything about bitcoin and with this, they might get the idea and probably research about it, I mean its time to stop banks schemes a lot of people think that banks are the only way hopefully it would make them think. We need more of these promotions and advertisements to conquer that world in order to stop banks.

We don't know how banks are going to respond to this but hopefully, they don't face any legal case here flashing bitcoin on a bank.

It actually looks good in this photo!

Yes. It is difficult to confirm the authenticity of the images and the special circumstances surrounding them without further information. However, it is not uncommon for individuals or groups to use projection mapping or other forms of visual media to display messages or images on buildings or other structures. It is also not surprising that some members of the cryptocurrency community may wish to use such tactics to promote their views or beliefs.

Those people who did this in a bank have got some balls to do it in a bank, lol. They are like trolling around to the banks and showing bitcoin, and at the same time, they are giving some sort of promotion to bitcoin and telling people who see it to learn bitcoin. I am shocked at how they did it: they got caught and punished. and also how they do this act like this needs some serious set up too.

Many people have heard about bitcoin and want to engage in it, but they are unsure how to do so. They can learn more about bitcoin and understand how valuable it is with the aid of this. However, whoever edited the structure did so in order to learn about people's attitudes toward bitcoin. He also attempted to raise awareness about the legitimacy of bitcoin.

It's edited as per my understanding just to troll thr banking system and make people aware that Bitcoin is much useful then banks.The banking system has been trying to make you fool and some btc enthusiastic might have highlighted this image on twitter to promote a conversation about it and there must be mentioned about it somewhere because banks would not promote btc at this level on their own building.

This awareness of bitcoin is the most craziest than I have ever seen because it is like risky your life through your action on promoting bitcoin. They are indirectly tell the people that a decentralized system is better than a centralized system, if not why was the projection on the same building where a bank is. I like this innovation and I give kudos to those bitcoin lovers that did this. I still believe that this is sending a message to the citizens of Frankfurt and the world that some day bitcoin will be mostly used than fiat currency from my understanding. Bitcoin have removed a burden from its user and fiat is putting a heavy burden on its users.

This is interesting. ECB has always been cautious about Bitcoin and has expressed concerns about its potential impact on financial stability in the economy. It even considered BTC as a highly speculative asset and called for a global regulation. Not sure if being threatened is the right right to describe ECB but  bitcoin's something that they wouldn't allow to expand its role in the economy without getting regulated.


I think that flashing Bitcoin logo on ECB building is used by supporters as a form of publicity or protest. It is a way to raise awareness about the potential of cryptocurrencies that most people don't know yet. Those who have faith in bitcoin believe that it represent a decentralized alternative to traditional currencies that we have that are controlled by the government. The way I see it, edited or not, that logo on the building is a form of expression and a way to draw attention to an alternative financial system.

Looks very real to me...

https://twitter.com/cryptograffiti/status/1636017861234946049 (https://twitter.com/cryptograffiti/status/1636017861234946049)

Bitcoin is going to dominate the world vwbey soon so for us that are already in the system we have to grab what we have now and it is always better for us to keep our Bitcoin safe now that the price of Bitcoin is still low for the bullish market that is coming very soon. The awareness of Bitcoin will keep increasing whether the government likes it or not. It is in just amazing to see that there are some person that still like Bitcoin and crazy about the market. Those that thinks the market is going to crash are just playing games.
 

It all started with just a harmless troll to gain attention from the people about bitcoin but it is already safe to say that the authorities are now tracking down who's behind this movement to make an example because the place where they've flashed the logo wasn't a random building nor a coincidence, it was the European Central Bank and I bet it was planned.

I got no doubts that many people have actually saw it and in the aftermath, many people will know it as that will surely make a headline for days.

I understand it now and it was so great of them that they've done this and I think this isn't the first time and won't be the last time that they'll do this. A great reminder for all of those folks that have been aware of the collapse of the banking system and the world has already seen the first few of it being done.

That editing was different from those others that have said that it was an actual edit and didn't happen. But confirmations say that it actually happened and these guys are witty.

The two words are perfect reminder, short, simple yet very meaningful. It's only going to be a matter of time until many people will understand why these guys are doing it. The crisis with the banks are scary and if they don't want that to happen to their money, they should obey what's been displayed through ECB.  8)

Yes, that's actually the purpose of it and that's to give everyone the heads up and let them know that bitcoin is existing and the awareness that they're contributing to it is appreciated and a lot. It was a bold step and I guess other bitcoiners in every parts of the world might do the same gesture but hopefully, none of them will be charged by their governments.

I'm thinking the different way and using the building of ECB just to flash the word is giving the message to the people and not to the banks. That's what I just feel but either way, message is for both, the banking and financial institutions and for everyone who's normally working with their assets and working hard to save for their future.

Yeah, that's what I am thinking and doing that will truly get the attention of everybody and they've succeeded in doing it because the internet got them on articles so fast.

I haven't seen an article that has exposed who are the mild troll guys that did this but yeah, they're great contributors to the community and to their area. Every single awareness that an individual or group guys, they're impactful because these companies think that bitcoin should just be something ignored by them but not knowingly, it's gonna be the solution to their possible collapsing.

It was the opposite, it's made by bitcoin lovers and not bitcoin haters.

I guess that before doing this, they're pretty sure that they'll take any consequence that might be charged to them. So, they've thought of everything well and planned it before flashing it to the ECB building.

The banks won't take it seriously and in fact, they'd hate bitcoin and that's why it's not an important thing to them not until they'll feel the impact. The worry about the banking system to collapse is there and we'd seen billionaires taking out their money to the banks have significant impact and there's a chance that money will go into bitcoin, once again.

They can just hire that signal lighting projector, I don't know what it is called but yeah, it's a lowkey project for them and those guys have spent money just to do this act and I'm sure that they're feeling lit on it as they did it.

Several sources said that it was for real, yeah I'm quite doubtful with it and unsure but with all of those articles and pictures getting out which were unlikely edited proves it. I've seen several videos that these projectors are used for just some events and matters that it should be really used.

Truly brave guys, they've got balls and I can't even think if by joining them I'll be able to join because I know that there's gonna be a consequence on this if the building management will try to sue or do some law enforcement against the guys.

Many says it wasn't.

So far, it was also that I've seen. There have been families that left their normal lives and went full time in bitcoin but this was one of the craziest thing ever because it involves the actual ECB and it's like disrespecting them.

Meanwhile, there were some mild troll guys doing their thing and feeding them as if nothing has ever said from them about bitcoin. They're not threatened on this one, it's used for making people wake up that they should start to know more about bitcoin. But let's see until when these banking collapsing news will start and they keep on coming about the other potential banks that might fall as well.

Seems like they are serious about making an example to those who oppose them. Though it is just a harmless meme, those guys will take on everything seriously once their authority is challenged. I just don't know why people enjoy the pleasure of being entitled, maybe because they have power over other people? or they enjoy seeing people like slaves working for them? They have been playing monopoly for the longest time, while us who average people who only wanted to participate in global economic activities are being treated as rebels. It's really funny how they will enact the law whenever it is convenient for them.  ::)

Taking my time to study the market and looking for new opportunities for reinvest process in the space. Bitcoin have all the signs to triggered the bull moves but with consolidation and the current bear candles in the charts, it's weigh down Bitcoin. For the individuals who created the project, the idea of Bitcoin ruling the universe is a reality. Without the obstacles that some nations place in its way, there is a good chance that Bitcoin will soar to the moon. It's a fact, and I'm glad to be among those who will enjoy the rewards of their efforts in the cryptocurrency market. Currently, now is the time to invest heavily in bitcoin. Doing so during the bear market is advantageous because Bitcoin is cheaper than it would otherwise be.

The image is very impressive, powerful, and commendable. It sure have sent a message to those who don't know about Bitcoin and the powerful people in charge of the banks that they've got something to be worried about.
I'll like something like this to be replicated in every major cities in USA, UK, EU, and the BRICS countries. Let's take up this challenge.

Bitcoin is decentralized currency and we can do anything without need to ask a permission from the third party, I think that's what most of people understand. It's true in the definition, but it's wrong when we talk about the practice. Many people hold their coins on a centralized exchange, they can't use their coins to spend it because no offline stores accept it, they need to convert to fiat where their money will be controlled by banks etc.

It's not about study Bitcoin, but also study to cashout without centralization.

The message is clear, study BTC and do not believe all of the bullshit the banks and government tell you about it, they are liars who have noticed that their fractional reserve system they have been using to make money would be under serious threat if BTC continues to grow massively in this way. Now they spread lies and try to implement tough regulations. They know centralized exchanges isn't BTC, but whenever one of them collapses, they find a way to drag BTC into it, they want everyone to use centralized exchanges, so they can severely regulate them and know everyone who sells and buys BTC, they hate self custody, don't believe them, hold your BTC's yourself.

Many believe that the collapse of the bank will be an opportunity for bitcoin to rule the world. But I doubt it, and from what you've mentioned, it shows us that it's even more unlikely. Ultimately, if we want bitcoin to rule the world, then government approval is required, bitcoin will not be able to rule the world on its own. In my view, no matter what happens to the banking system and currency, they will continue to dominate the world, no decentralized project can replace it.

There are people who already know about Bitcoin but still insist that Bitcoin is bad that it must be banned or regulated heavily so I don't think this message can mean anything to them but this was a great advertisement for a regular individual to get curious and research more about Bitcoin. If they be able to study Bitcoin, it can give them a lot of benefits on either using Bitcoin as a currency or an asset.

When more people know about Bitcoin, maybe it helps for the Bitcoin to be more legal. They won't have a reason to ban or regulate it anymore because people are now well-educated about it and they know how to protect themselves when dealing with Bitcoin. Let's hope your wish will come true and we will see lots of this propaganda later on.

Yes, bitcoin is not too unfamiliar to people, but the important thing is that they still do not believe in bitcoin and continue to ignore it, many people already know about the recent collapse of banks, but they still believe in the bank and refuse to learn about bitcoin. But I won't be sad for them and will respect their decision. Sometimes bitcoin is only good for us but not for them, so we don't need to impose our thoughts on them.

A challenge for every region, that would be great and just as the guys did it, whoever will do it has got the balls as well but I'm not up to this challenge. I might be taken down physically and things in my place have to be done physically to put that mental fear into those that might attempt to do something like this.

Having the latter part, it's understandable that cashing out really have to be done in the form of fiat and we have to go through a lot of centralized exchanges to do that. But that doesn't limit our choices to go with decentralized ways but, they're just few and hopefully that will also part of the future that shall be nourished and improve. But then, having it literally, those were the best words to have them introduced bitcoin and be curious about anything.

That's so true, whenever it's about illegal activities, matters and transactions. All of the blame and suspecting goes to bitcoin and they all devalue it. It's because they're covering something that lies within their centralized system that's being defeated knowingly by bitcoin.

From what i can see here based on the bitcoin and the inscription flashed on the building of the European Central Bank, these dudes are trying to pass a message to the European central bank, Government and other financial agencies to do away with their ignorance as regards bitcoin and cryptocurrency innovations and study more about it to get updated on how the bitcoin technology works. I think the guys who did this got some balls of theirs to have attempted this but come to talk of it, this scene is very beautiful to behold.

What i see from this is that Bitcoin is here to savage the fiat financial system while making bitcoin the mainstream center of attraction which create more popularity

Obviously that's the message they are trying to pass but I could have only imagine how the central banks have started to fail their customers and now whether the government like it or not someday they are all going to thinking, implementing and using bitcoin. Seeing this just makes me see the height at which  bitcoin has gained popularity in the world today and if this type of awareness is what is needed for the government to start adopting bitcoin then I feel this is what is needed here too in Africa. Bitcoin is taking over the financial system and Africa is one planet that needs such massive awareness although the spread of bitcoin is good in some part of Africa like my country Nigeria, the growth and spread of bitcoin is massive and I feel it's time we give our own Central Bank an awareness too to study bitcoin  ;D, would be really nice to see something like this play out in my locality but only brave dudes can carry such out.

Governments and banks understand bitcoin very well, they are not ignorant about it, and that's why they are always looking for ways to stop it. They will never accept it because it doesn't make them perfect but instead will cost them power and revenue. Governments and banks need to be centralized, the more centralized, the stronger their power. If they use bitcoin, they lose those things.

the government still maintains a fiat centralized system, even though many are familiar with bitcoin and want to realize it as a currency, it seems difficult to happen. unless in a country where more than 50% of the population already uses bitcoin and that country adheres to democracy, then this can be used as a loophole for his political campaign (only wishful thinking). especially if it is carried out simultaneously in large countries, the effect will be felt. but for me being able to get money from bitcoin is enough

I think it's a very good appeal. Banning something you don't understand or restricting its usage based on unconfirmed assumptions and cherry-picked evidence is just wrong. Bitcoin has a lot of economic potential if regulated mildly, and environmental concerns must be more universal and account for all major energy-consuming industries and their sources of energy rather than focus on miners specifically. I'm not sure I fully believe the images and the video, but if that was truly done, it's very impressive.

If a government wants to have parcipaon in bitcoin, it has to buy like any other, just like El Salvador did, it is the only way because a Government cannot have control over bitcoin, that would be the Height of control they want, so the governments through of theLicenses, the kyc is a very pleasant way to enter and it is not the appropriate one because I know when they want to enter as well as posing as good and no, it is best that the little Systems that have access to crypto do not Allow them or are not permissive with a government.

Bitcoin is a great currency and we will make more profits from the market if the more people invest in the cryptocurrency market to make is surge high. I don't know mostly the reason why the market keep falling and going bullish but I know that surely if more people keep buying and investing in Bitcoin the market will keep surging bullishly.

it's a welcome development, if things like this is been built to enable us to study and understand more about the Bitcoin it will go a very long way to help us, especially those who might have not heard anything about Bitcoin, and you know so many people due believe in seeing before they believe, but I hope they can as well have those who will always attend to our various question,and guide us on how to go about it? 

Studying Bitcoin can be a complex endeavor, and there are times when writing about it requires extra assistance. In such situations, services like ghost essay (https://www.academicghostwriter.org/hire-essay-ghostwriter/) become a valuable resource. They provide expert guidance and support to help students navigate the intricacies of this fascinating subject, making the learning process smoother and more effective. Seeking help when needed is a wise strategy in the pursuit of knowledge.

Title's a little misleading, I come in expecting a topic about studying bitcoin's inner workings and I find out we're talking about the bit signal lol. It was a mild troll that the people made in retaliation to certain EU laws that are included in the Markets in Crypto Assets regulation paper. Probably a little pub stunt as well like what many have said here to bring the crypto king back into the mainstream especially now that bitcoin's nearing the halving period and we're going to enter another bull season most likely.

I say let them lol, as time goes by more and more of this will happen around the world, people will know about bitcoin, and the rest is history.
