I sure as hell wouldn't put it past them.
At the same time there is no shortage of organic indigenous Internet trolls that would find their own way here.
I'd guess at this point not likely and later for sure.

I work for HSBC and I have been told that I would be fired if I did not downplay Bitcoin in every way and detract from its usefulness. My bosses were very clear on that point. They said that even after I was fired, if I used Bitcoin that my life would be "difficult" after.

I'm really scared.

People paid by banking elite to troll this Forum?

Not sure, but if this is true, then maybe they should get a special label, something sort of similar to the scammer label, but that would distinguish them as biased.

Perhaps a "Troll" label?

people working at banks are not "banking elite", but maybe you already knew that.

No, I think you're full-on retard, of the spergiest kind. Your question was are people paid by the banking elite to detract from Bitcoin, and I admitted that I am paid by the banking elite to detract from Bitcoin, and your response was that people who are paid by banking elite are not banking elite?

Retard.

Sane people often do.

Only daydreaming sociopaths like OP would think that bitcoin is currently important enough for anyone to bother with. We have less volume than Second life's Linden Dollars for Christ's sake.


EDIT: Also, OP touches himself in inappropriate places while reading your posts. Be careful.

Bitcoin attracts people ranging from opportunists looking to score a quick buck, to dreamers and fringe dwellers looking for a magical proof for their delusions. I'm somewhere in the middle. The geniuses like the ones that developed Bitcoin are the worst kind of dreamers. They are the ones that show us that magic does exist, the rest of us just don't understand how it works yet.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

The retard is YOU, Matthew, if you think a manager or even a regional HSBC manager qualifies as "banking elite".

So who would you classify as the banking elite so that I can let them know that their cover is blown?

Come on Matt, you don't give these "banking elite" much credit for intelligence.

If bitcoin truly is a threat, it would need to be stopped early.

I voted no.  Not that they would have any hesitation to do so, but it comes with some risk of being caught, and why bother when we're perfectly capable of trolling ourselves to pieces without their help?

Oh, I give them plenty of credit for intelligence, so much that I am dumbfounded why anyone thinks it would be more than trivial to stop Bitcoin at this point.
