Governments don't have to short it. Pulling money from digital currencies back into government controlled ones seems like benefit enough.

- mcintyre1994 13y agoSo the claim is they'd be doing something like these attacks? I just struggle to believe that's the most effective way for them to deal with the problem, when the US Government coming out with "Bitcoin is illegal due to {plausible sounding terrorism story}, possession is a felony" would utterly tank it overnight.
- smrtinsert 13y agoNo, I don't think they have to, I'm just saying they could benefit. All a govt really has to do is outlaw it like Russia just did recently I believe.
