Developers of free and open source software appearing on Most Wanted lists , and getting tried and convicted of working for some foreign power to 'destabilise and undermine the sovereignty of the United States'
The 'proof' is a couple of small transactions five or six hops away from a known Foreign Agent for each dev convicted
MIT labs and Google announce theyve spent two years on their quantum computers doing a 'joint study on the bitcoin blockchain' and that they cracked the seed phrases for all addresses with more than 250,000 sats.
In the authors' opinions, blockchain as a technology is groundbreaking, except bitcoin is too slow and is not quantum resistant. Therefore, they argue, a new Google-backed chain which is written in Go and uses the new Google-sponsored 'open' quantum cryptographic library is a superior alternative for all applications previously assumed by bitcoin
I don't think this is realistic.
maybe. maybe not
desperate governments will do anything
we can see devs getting jailed now
google is effectively an arm of the nsa. they could create hundreds of addresses to say their computers havecracked them. once a narrative is in the current zeitgeist it tends to stick around for a while
We will ask for proof, such as sign a known Satoshi utxo, let's see if nsa can do what Craig Wright could not do. Without that, tick tock next block™.
we've just watched the world turned upside down due to 'science', just pulling on existing threads
either way it's just good post to think about
what if...
What comes next?
