    Ah, so that’s why bitcoin spiked out of nowhere. All the grifters passed around some inside information and stocked up before this went public.

      I have a very small investment in a btc etf but have watched it go up 150% in the past 2 weeks.

      Btc is an instrument to end the central banking system and bypass sanctions.

      A while back I decided I’d put my money where I knew the evil people were heading.

      Turns out my (very small) portfolio has gone up 56% the past month.

      Crime pays, I guess is the lesson.

      (Purchased last year at 4.40 a share)

    North Korea has stolen many billions of dollars in Bitcoin in the last 5 years due to targeting hacking efforts. However, they struggle to spend it or launder it because nobody will be the ones left holding stolen NK Bitcoin.

    If we make Bitcoin strong and fungible, we empower North Korea more than anyone else. It’s a bad idea.
