Operation Orchestra 2.0
summary
Claims a government campaign since 2014 that deliberately breaks Bitcoin’s instant-pay UX by pushing a replace-by-fee that changes destination patch into software, then amplifying fear and forum noise; merchants drop instant acceptance and confirmations shift to 10 minutes to one hour, with the campaign boasting instant payment destroyed in six weeks and program spend under $50k. Tactics include Trojan forks, patent-trolling, price suppression via futures ETF, demoralizing stunts (castrated bull), targeted arrests and a stated surveillance tool on scarce asset to control gateways.
