I'm going to go ahead and not even bother dismissing that one.
The CNBC article. You applied a Fox News worthy amount of spin to what really happened.
The central bank of Poland decided to warn its citizens against the dangers of speculating in cryptocurrencies. The SEC has done the same. The former simply adopted a more creative approach targeted at a high risk population: millenials. Crypto is rampant with fraud. This isn't news.
I'm not even sure why you linked the scmp article. From there:
> The bogus invitation could be a ruse by traders seeking to profit from a further decline in cryptocurrencies including bitcoin on the futures market, analysts said.
Enough said.
> There are also clear coordinated attacks from CNBC such as a couple weeks ago when Warren Buffet, Charlie Munger, and Bill Gates all got together to trash Bitcoin.
They're all close friends/business partners and have been for a very long time. It's neither surprising that they concur nor that their opinions were sought within roughly the same timeframe. Buffett and Gates are the two most publicly generous contributors to charitable and philanthropic causes around the world. You decided to call into question the motives of perhaps the two wealthy individuals on this planet who are least likely to have malicious intent, based on the evidence.
As far as I can tell, you're the real shill. Weaponizing a combination of FUD and conspiracy theories to do whatever you can to resuscitate the value of your ill-advised crypto holdings. I can't fault you for being human I guess.
