If Satoshi's goal was to destroy the world's central banks, "they" would have planned to distribute Bitcoin in exactly they way it has been. Its has been VERY equally distributed around the world. This last 6 months distribution has been proof to me.

No one, I repeat, NO ONE, can tell us definitely who have been the "whales" that have been selling the millions of coins this last 24 months. That's a fact. I can say with certitude that much of the selling was at the absolute worst time possible to sell. No one in the right mind would sell the way some of the selling was done, UNLESS, they were purposely trying to get the worst market outcome. These facts are what I do know.

Now given the above facts, what could be the possible motivation ? Vast and low cost distribution could absolutely be one motivation. Who would want that ? Why would they want that ?

It warms me to hear you reflecting on Bitcoin's distribution; the system's design favours wide participation. Individual market decisions are always their own, of course. My intent was simply a robust, decentralized electronic cash.

Anyone who speaks in absolute certitude needs an ego check.

I maintain that Bitcoin's price is not under attack. We are in a low liquidity environment. The price of Bitcoin is relatively low because people need money, which is what Bitcoin is. Hodl is fine until you need to pay rent.

Bhutan have sold 6000 BTC in the past year to prop up their suffering economy. It saved them, it did its job, but that kind of selling will put downwards pressure on price while we have such a low market cap.

I'm perfectly happy with Bitcoin's price. It's holding relatively steady in very choppy seas.
