RE: I'm a former Green Beret and here's how I would bring down Bitcoin

in #bitcoin8 years ago

Its half a strategy to attack bitcoin, and half a thorough analysis of the bitcoin community. I mean, who needs this guy? Plenty of subversives doing all of this, and they've been there since the beginning. I just called them haters. For example, much much earlier in the libertarian debate on bitcoin, there was this Mises quote being used to argue that bitcoin wasn't a real currency because it wasn't tangible and had no intrinsic value. This argument has fallen away largely, since the proof is in the pudding now.

So what is bitcoin except a network designed to be exceptionally resilient to exactly these methods? One thing I'll note, when the bitcoin market in the US (after years of scandal and problems) began stagnating it was the Chinese who revived it. You know, these same tactics were used against the Black Panthers, and if you asked anyone a few years ago, they'd say it worked... yet here we are with Black Lives Matter's essentially black nationalist marxism coming back in full force. Can you really kill ideas?
