Yes.

Seems like a desperate move.

The IMF can't have anyone break ranks.

The (now obvious) desperation of central banks, IMF, World Bank and governments to put a lid on Bitcoin is testimony to it's success. They know that they made a mistake in ignoring Bitcoin for 15 years and they only realised how much of a threat Bitcoin poses to their debt based business models during the last cycle. At 1.3 trillion market capitalisation their gears shifted. Now imagine what a cap of 10 trillion will do or 100 trillion.

That's actual and debt free capital being taken out of their corrupt and broken world. I'd be desperate too.

They should have done the study Bitcoiners did. Once you understand the Lindy Effect and how decentralised Bitcoin is, it’s clear they can’t kill it any more and it’s just gonna keep eating the world no matter what.

Agreed. The cat is out of the bag.

Sauce?

All of crypto X + google.

Blackmail towards a US-friendly agenda is all the IMF knows. It’s their raison d’être
