Jeffrey Epstein and the hijacking of Bitcoin. Fail to read at your peril (https://brownstone.org/articles/the-hijacking-of-bitcoin/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email)
...........This is the full circle.
Epstein funded the MIT devs who killed Bitcoin as cash.
Brock Pierce ran the Bitcoin Foundation into the ground, opened the door for Epstein’s money, brokered Epstein’s Coinbase stake, sat in Epstein’s mansion pitching Bitcoin to Larry Summers, co-founded Tether, and kept emailing Epstein until 2018.
Tether then printed unbacked dollars to pump Bitcoin 50% in 2017.
Howard Lutnick, who lied about cutting ties with Epstein, took over management of Tether’s $130+ billion Treasury reserves before he even joined the Trump transition. He pushed for Treasury Secretary, missed, landed at Commerce, installed his ally Bo Hines as White House crypto advisor, had Hines ram through the GENIUS Act, then watched Hines quit the White House and immediately become CEO of Tether’s U.S. subsidiary.
Every single player is connected. Every single move was coordinated.
The GENIUS Act entrenches the exact loopholes Tether has lived on.
The CLARITY Act hands regulatory cover to the same insiders.
The Bitcoin Strategic Reserve sits on top of a coin whose price was artificially inflated by the same stablecoin they now “regulate,” whose core development was funded by Epstein, and whose usability was deliberately destroyed by the people who profit from the fix.
This is not Big Short 2.0.
This is Big Short 2.0 on steroids, pre-planned, and run by the same network that already owns the outcome.
They created the crisis (crippled on-chain Bitcoin), printed the fake money to pump it (Tether), positioned themselves to own the “solution” (Blockstream, Cantor, USAT), wrote the laws that protect their scam (GENIUS, CLARITY), and are now preparing to step in as the saviors when the bubble they inflated finally pops. They walk away with fees, stakes, revolving-door jobs, and permanent control over programmable money. We get every transaction tracked, every dollar programmable, and the last remnants of financial freedom erased under the banner of “innovation” and “stability.”
This is not incompetence. This is conquest.
What We Should Do
The Epstein files are public. The University of Texas study is published. The CFTC fines are on record. The emails are in black and white.
Shut down the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve immediately. It is built on fraud and serves as a distraction.
Kill the CLARITY Act before it cements the control grid.
Repeal the GENIUS Act and slam the backdoor shut on programmable dollars.
Expose every connection. Name every name. Refuse to let policy be written on top of Epstein’s shadow.
Support real alternatives: privacy coins, sound money protocols, anything that keeps control in individual hands instead of this parasitic elite network.
Bitcoin was born to set us free. The files prove it was captured. The time to take it back is now.

Matthew Tyrmand claims Don Jr. is engaged in insider trading and using his position to execute crypto schemes with foreign governments to bribe Trump“He's been fucking stealing money by the billions. One of my missions to the next two years is to make sure he ends up in prison. Because he's stolen a fucking billion dollars from the American people. He’s an absolute fucking grifter. He's insider trading SPAC announcements.
He's doing crypto schemes to get foreign governments to pay his crypto platform to bribe the president.”

BREAKING: Epstein did not just fund Bitcoin's rise. He funded the hijack. Maxis always screech "Which code did Epstein fund?" Here are the receipts: Straight line from pedo cash to small blocks, SegWit/LN gatekeeping, and US CBDC pilots. Wake up. BTC is Pedo Coin:
1/ Epstein drops $500k into Blockstream's 2014 seed round via Kyara Investments (co-owned with Joi Ito). Blockstream pushes sidechains/L2. Benefits massively from small blocks. Divested quick, but the stink remains. This sets the stage for the Blocksize Wars sabotage.
2/ About 8 months later (2015), Epstein's gift funds (about $525k to MIT DCI) rescue Bitcoin Core devs after Foundation collapse. Hires Cory Fields, Wladimir van der Laan, Gavin Andresen. Ito credits Epstein for letting them move quickly and win this round. Hijack begins.
3/ These devs? Straight-up gatekeepers. Cory Fields: Refactors net code for faster propagation (pre-SegWit), works on libbitcoinconsensus, SegWit testnet launch, build systems for reproducible builds. Key for secure small-block chain. Also on Brink grants committee now.
4/Van der Laan: Lead maintainer since 2014. Merges code, oversees releases. Gatekeeps consensus, pushes SegWit activation (2017). Still at MIT, focuses on wallet/privacy but enforces small-block conservatism. No big blocks? Blame this decentralization facade.
5/ Gavin? Starts at MIT but gets ousted 2016-17 for pushing bigger blocks (XT/Classic). Clashes with small-blockers. Proves gatekeeping: Dissenters sidelined. Now retired, critiques BTC's direction. Epstein cash solidified the small-block cartel that killed on-chain scaling.
6/ SegWit/LN: Epstein-funded devs execute. SegWit (BIP141) fixes malleability for LN, boosts capacity softly. No hard fork. Fields contributes to testnet, code reviews, builds. Van der Laan merges. LN? Needs SegWit. Turns BTC into settlement layer for elites, not P2P cash.
7/ Gatekeeping forks: Core devs control reference client. Reject big-block proposals (e.g., SegWit2x halted for no consensus). Rhetoric: Big blocks equal centralization attack. Result? BTC locked at 1MB, fees skyrocket, narrative shifts to digital gold (Epstein's 2017 pitch).
8/ The endgame? Cory Fields jumps from SegWit/LN to co-authoring Project Hamilton's 2022 CBDC white paper (Boston Fed/MIT). Designs transaction processor for digital dollar. UTXO-like but centralized. Epstein's hijack: From BTC sabotage to Fed CBDC blueprint. Coincidence? No.
9/ Maxis: Deny this? You are complicit in the hijack. BTC is not decentralized. It is Epstein-tainted, gatekept garbage.
