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?

And what does it change?

If Jihan actually sold his soul to his fiat masters (which is quite possible), they might be looking for a chance to irreparably damage Bitcoin (given the mining capacity this dude possesses), but then we have to answer the question why he is not using his power immediately to hurt Bitcoin right now or hasn't already used it. What does it give to him to postpone his attack against Bitcoin (if he was given this task, of course)?
