This guy is the CEO of Bitcoin...  (I am not making this up)
LinkedIn

He just got nailed by USA cops!!  
Money Laundering
Interview on the arrest...
Interview (Tone Vays is such a wanker.  What is with the stupid heavy forward comb-over?  Hilarious!)


The price is going to tank bigly when this gets out.  The US is arresting EVERYBODY!!!!

I am pretty sure this is the real end of Bitcoin.  You can't have your CEO in jail and expect things to get done.

Mr. Morgan Rockwell was the CEO of bitcoin academy. It's just another business built around the crypto curreny. He was also a president of Defend BTC which is a company that provides legal services to the crypto businesses. I see no direct relation of him with the bitcoin here. He was just another person with a crypto related business. I don't see any impact of this news in the bitcoin market.

US is playing double standard game and majority of the crypto users are aware of it. Also bitcoin doesn't depends on a single person. So I am pretty sure that this is NOT the real end of bitcoin. It can't be!

How can you guys believe such nonsense? As far as I know, I don’t think the true creator of bitcoin and the blockchain technology is really known.
Many people have claimed to be but it is hard to know who is telling the truth.  However on the topic of money laundering, this is one of the key reason why some governments do not like cryptocurrencies, it allows for an easy way to transfer money without detection from governments.

Man, read through a whole thread. This is just a company name (you could theoretically establish a company and name it - say - Ethereum too, which would make you CEO of Ethereum) and the whole thread was created to have a laugh at that coincidence of names.
