What if the late game boss isn't Jihan or Roger? What if they are only puppets? What if we are fighting against a central bank? And what if this bank is located in China?

Sure, bitcoiners have their faults. But we are up against far greedier, more stupid and more corrupt forces than ourselves.

The ICBC pushes its pet Bitmain to make half-arsed power plays, and it dumped a few thousand coins and etherea on the market to decimate the price. Doesn't work.

The CIA pushed Hearn around to introduce heartbleed and Gavin to get big blocks and cut off the first adopters. Didn't work.

Ethereum scams, backed by some banks. Don't work.

No, there hasn't been a concerted push by all the central banks yet, and that would be a proper struggle, but they're mostly too complacent and foolish to understand how dangerous bitcoin is, how it breaks everything.

It even shattered satoshi's vision.

It's more likely the ICBC. trades on pink sheets, but has huge RMB 'capital'. no way to follow the money

no amount of tinkering like this can stop the bitcoin protocol.
