Bitcoin was released right at a time where the bankers knew debt based fiat was going into cascading deflationary collapse since in this fraudulent system debts are considered assets instead of liabilities.  This is why the evil Jew sheklers running the system starting spamming the phrase "helicopter money" and "basic income" as an actual serious proposed solution.  The system either collapses in deflation, or they print and....it collapses anyway, just a few days later from hyperinflation.

If used as a dollar substitute, bitcoin for all intents and purposes IS helicopter money (bitcoin currently is a dollar derivative and not substitute).  So they probably released this bullshit as part of that plan.  It's just that the market was completely cornered due to ASIC manufacturers right after it was released, making distribution terrible, rendering the entire exercise pointless and not "helicopter money" anymore since the so called money only goes to a couple people.  It appears they continued with their pointless plan anyway and tried to raise the bitcoin price.  After this move completely fails to raise money velocity or do anything for the economy, there will be some type of implosion and they will do real helicopter money or basic income into people's bank accounts.
