>In my article We Need To Shut Bitcoin And All Other Cryptocurrencies Down. Here’s Why from last week, I made the argument that cryptomining (the transaction processing behind Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies) is so fraught with criminal enterprise that any crypto transaction unethically supports such crime.

>I pointed out in particular that illicit cryptomining, or ‘cryptojacking,’ where hackers install mining software on unsuspecting corporate networks, is set to explode, as organized crime becomes an increasingly pervasive force behind Bitcoin and other altcoins.

>I further argued that permissionless blockchain was at the heart of the problem, concluding that Bitcoin and its brethren would have to forego this flawed technology if they had any hopes of surviving.

>In response, I received hundreds of responses, many in agreement but an even greater number angrily opposed, particularly among the ‘crypto-anarchists’ at the heart of the Bitcoin/crypto movement.

>To my dismay, every single counterargument was fallacious – and many were downright hateful.

>First, the Anti-Semitic Dog Whistles

>Purveyors of hate speech often speak in ‘dog whistles,’ a kind of code in attempts to disguise their evil intent. For many of the most extreme crypto fans, cryptocurrency is anti-bank, with ‘bank’ being a dog whistle for ‘global Jewish conspiracy.’

>All it took was my Jewish-sounding name to set them off. “We Need To Shut Jews And All Their Currencies Down. Here’s Why,” says anonymous 4chan contributor ‘3auiS//y,’ who calls himself ‘Adolf Hitler.’

>He then proceeds to mock my article. “Last week I wrote an article on illicit usury - how Jews are sneaking fiat-currency debt-slavery in to nation states. I attempted to raise the alarm, calling this Jewish threat the most dangerous in the history of the world.”

>Other anonymous 4chan contributors aren’t as eloquent. “Disgusting f**king kike, one day I hope this planet rids itself of this f**king plague known as the jew,” says ‘DBohsgDQ’ (asterisks added).

>And then there’s this: “((((((((((bloomberg))))))))) I hate them so much,” says ‘47tTRH3r,’ using the popular repeated parentheses alt-right dog whistle.

>Not all crypto hate speech hides behind the anonymity of 4chan. “Forbes article by (((Jason Bloomberg))) says to ‘Shut Down’ all crypto?” asks Zachary W. Williams, who bills himself as a ‘Blockchain Enthusiast at decentralized intelligence agency.’

>Williams continues: “This guy knows enough about Crypto to know what he is doing here is wrong, he is knowingly decieving people!” Williams says. “He probably owns a lot of crypto and makes money off of it, and he is trying to get the price down for himself to buy cheap by making you a fantasy that any country could stop Bitcoin when NO country can and he knows that!”

>One anti-Semitic commenter actually presented a counterargument of sorts. “You can productively do CPU mining on certain coins, especially if you had enough garbage computers chugging away at it,” says Douglas Bowser, blogger on Digital Currency Grid. “It’s just probably the absolute most benign thing a botnet could be doing, and it’s totally insane that the guy is suggesting this is the biggest cyber-threat in 2018 or whatever. We need to shut Jewish bankers down. And Jewish media.”

>Analyzing the Counterarguments

>At the core of the cryptocurrency movement is the belief that the fact that governments and banks are in charge of money impedes personal freedom and power, and thus a fully decentralized approach to money is a revolutionary technique for regaining this freedom and power for the people.

>Any suggestion of shutting down crypto, therefore, goes against this core philosophy, regardless of any rational argument. As a result, the clickbait title of my previous article predictably drew these people in, in spite of the fact that I wasn’t actually arguing for shutting down all cryptocurrencies.

>For many people, their counterargument simply takes this idea of cryptocurrency as a necessary revolution as given, and thus I’m either working on the side of evil or simply misinformed or clueless. “We basically have two communities with opposite views, one defending the past and their traditional platforms,” says Fit50, blogger at Investors’ Hub. “Bloomberg is one of them, the other trying to develop a future and unleash its promises.”

>In reality, my argument was that cryptos will either have to stop running on top of permissionless blockchain or face the prospect of being shut down, because of the unavoidable criminal benefits of permissionlessness. To avoid shutting down crypto altogether, then, the entire crypto world will have to move to permissioned blockchain.

Ashkenazi jews have the highest average IQ of any ethnic group in the world. IQ matters, is heavily genetic, and doesn't change relative to others in one's age group throughout one's entire life (excluding developmental problems/damage like from starvation).

The control of the money supply is absolutely a tool for control, but this is why it's so important that the Jewish leaders at the top of all western societies and influential organizations keep full control of the money supply so they have another tool to guide humanity, letting less intelligent people control their own destiny may work, but has a higher chance of ending in disaster. Doesn't it make more sense to keep control in the hands of the best and brightest of humanity?

They dilute themselves when they breed with us and part of that dilition is that they usually don't adhere to the cultural aspects of Judaism as much since it's only one one side of the family. They also can't pull that "fellow whites" shit in Asia so that will fucl them in the end. And yeah I believe there population is shrinking because Jews are constantly freaking out about it.
