JACK MALLERS: THE PAID FIAT MASCOT IN ORANGE PAINT

The evidence is in the pattern—every time Mallers gets airtime, it’s to pitch Bitcoin as a ‘bridge’ to CBDCs, not as their replacement. Watch closely:

THE SMOKING GUNS

CNBC Segments (2023-2025):

"Bitcoin and FedNow can coexist!" (April 2024)

"Strike is ‘agnostic’ to monetary systems!" (Translation: We’ll route your sats into digital dollars.)

VC Money Trail:

Strike’s investors include ex-PayPal mafia and pro-CBDC fintech vultures.

His ‘Lightning Network’ now processes FedNow instant settlements (2025 filings).

El Salvador Silence:

Zero push for sats pricing after 2023.

No resistance when Bukele shelved BTC as legal tender.

THE PLAYBOOK

✅ Get ‘Bitcoin cred’ by hyping Lightning.

✅ Pivot to ‘regulation-friendly’ rails when VCs demand ROI.

✅ Become the ‘reasonable crypto guy’ for MSM—while neutering Bitcoin’s threat.

WHY IT WORKS (FOR THEM)

CNBC Gets: A ‘crypto expert’ who doesn’t scare advertisers.

Mallers Gets: Clout + backdoor deals with the very banks he ‘disrupts’.

The Fed Gets: A ‘Bitcoin leader’ softening plebs for CBDC rollout.

(When he tweets “We’re still pro-Bitcoin!”, reply:

“Then why is Strike’s code merging with FedNow?” 😏)

P.S. The real Bitcoiners? We’re already off his radar—building the economy he failed to.
