I did not know the details of the story posted here by nostr:nprofile1qy0hwumn8ghj7cnfw33k76twd4shs6tdv9kxjum5wvhx7mnvd9hx2qg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsqzq3e0gs8jnmued6f2rp4c6vs07xqvs4vs8zpwt82smcdch4txjvq76kl2yj , interesting stuff. Anyhow, I believe the reason for JP to do that is not what Marty says. More likely they (not only JP Morgan but the whole WS) is trying to accumulate #bitcoin as cheaply as possible and anything goes to shake off weak or over leveraged hands off their #bitcoin. The reason lies in "Bitcoin's Great Dichotomy" here's my story
