First, there was the incident a while ago from someone demanding ransom of (I believe) 50 btc to stop the attack. The letter was signed with regards from "Mother Russia."
"Greetings from Russia" -- it was 60 BTC; the attack was back in late January 2013.
this points to government interference, maybe not our normal villains the US govt but say, the government of cyprus.
It could also be an elaborate plan to bring the price of bitcoin down, since everyone knows that sealswithclubs.eu owns the bitcoin world,
Gotta say, I think you're way off base. Cyprus is too busy freaking out about it's own banking meltdown to attack SwC. As for SwC "owning the bitcoin world", I think that's a gross exaggeration. SwC only has an average of a few hundred players; most people screwing around with BTC appear to be speculating with the currency itself.
