Cashgrab. However the whole reassigning crypto slop more than anything is just to generate outrage, free marketing, out of bitcoiners. Probably not enough for them to make much money.

Alternative headline: "Bitcoin Dev doesn't understand why people pay money for bitcoin".

Ah yes, cryptocurrency: built on an immutable ledger so that your money is safely secured by your private key until the project devs decide it’s not.

Everything is safe until it isn’t

Well yea. But so much of the bitcoin/crypto was specifically built on the idea that technology and “decentralized” blockchains were the right and necessary solution to protect us from this kind of centralized human manipulation.
