if you were a well capitalized three letter agency that wanted to institutionally capture bitcoin, and the only constraint was that it not be attributable… what’s the short list?

Development Capture
• Fund core developers through laundered grants and “anonymous” donations
• Create well-funded “independent” Bitcoin improvement initiatives that slowly shift consensus
• Infiltrate the BIP (Bitcoin Improvement Proposal) process with technically sound but subtly compromising changes
• Target: Protocol ossification that benefits surveillance or control
