From Tuur Demeester on Twitter.
It shows how easy it is for the ECB to fudge money and reports
_________________________
ECB bombshell: On Nov 4—the night of US election—the authors of the highly aggressive anti-#bitcoin paper softened the language in their concluding paragraph:
In the original it said: "Current non-holders should realize that they have compelling reasons to oppose Bitcoin and to advocate for legislation against it, aiming to prevent bitcoin prices from rising or to see Bitcoin disappear alltogether."
That sentence now reads: "Current non-holders should realise that they have reasons to worry about Bitcoin and legislation favoring it."
Also the last sentence was altered, leaving out the words "implying wealth redistribution".
A remarkable change on such a pivotal moment in history. Were the authors instructed to make these edits by ECB top brass, once it became clear that Trump's pro-bitcoin team was winning the election?
Credit goes to @snipMister81 for noticing.
