It is very easy to reply. Federal Reserve and the big families (Rockfellers, Rothchilds e.t.c)
BitCoin's true value cannot be attain until 2140. They know they cant wait. They need to act.
Thats because BitCoin is more than an economic meassure against their "world domination" plans. It is the weapon to counter those big guys.
I trully believe that satoshi started with this picture in his mind. To me, BitCoin is the means of freedom instead of the disaster the big guys brought to us.
And as always, US medias do their work great.
All Heil Britania.
What if Satoshi was the Rothchild that was betrayed by the family and so aimed for revenge and his own empire Insert's dramatic music XD
Either way, the eagle has landed.
BitCoin is more a political war than an economic one.
You know, if BitCoin was a bubble, they would benefit from the Bubble and then break the Big Bubble. (poet? lol )
But that cant be happen.
They have to do with people like you, that are very well experienced. People that know "how things work on the web" and people that cant be fooled.
I bet that Rothchild and those gipsies friends of him dont even know even how bandwidth works and even if they "buy" the best network engineer, to explain them that simple thing, they wouldnt understand again to make a plan to destroy BitCoin (Because if you cant understand the game, you cant play it!)
So, B for Bitcoin!
Never thought of it that way good point
Bitcoin is becoming a political dialogue and an economic one
Depending on the country it might be a war against it and a war for it in others
Countries that have less to lose and more to gain will accept it
Third World Countrys / Global South fraught by civil war European Countries that are scared of their own Euros and bank rushes
Bitcoin is volatile but when a government says your money is mine to pay the nations debt BY DECREE
