Bitcoin:联邦调查局承认从事渗透，破坏和拆除竞争性货币

联邦调查局（FBI）写道：

“企图破坏这个国家的[即合法货币。违宪美联储笔记]仅仅是一个独特的形式国内恐怖主义“，美国联邦检察官汤普金斯说，在宣布判决。“虽然这些形式的反政府活动不涉及暴力[即。他们是自愿制度，没有受害者]，他们每一位阴险，这个国家的经济稳定[即代表一个明确的和现实的危险。他们广泛采用可能崩溃腐败的银行系统]，她补充说。“ “我们决心通过渗透，破坏，拆除机构，寻求挑战，我们的民主政体的合法性，以应付这些威胁。”[即。我们将从事国内的恐怖主义，以防止对私有财产的自愿贸易的行为。]

我觉得这个由联邦调查局在对私人货币体系的国内恐怖主义行为从事公开承认熊Bitcoin货币体系的用户特别重要的意义。如果我们在Bitcoin的历史看，因为它获得的恶名，我们看到摆的黑客攻击对确实扰乱和破坏货币体系的主要交易所。

当然，无论是联邦调查局做的事情，打破了底层Bitcoin加密（这是不可能的，甚至为他们），货币体系将继续发挥作用。但是，此消息应该把货币制度的通知用户。

任何重大交易或零售商在未来联机，应被视为一个联邦调查局黑客攻击的潜在受害者或作为FBI运行操作，将用于在未来某个日期Bitcoin市场扰乱。这意味着人们应该特别涉及到谁的非常透彻的认识，以及如何管理自己的系统，而无需使用新的交流或钱包网站持怀疑态度。

鉴于上述由联邦调查局，它在国内的恐怖主义破坏私有财产的贸易行为从事入场，我们应该期待任何Bitcoin交换或大型零售商有强大到足以抵御美国联邦机构的国内恐怖袭击的安全系统。如果他们不这样做，它极有可能，他们将受到削弱国内我们自己的政府所犯下的恐怖袭击。

对于最终用户来说，这意味着你不应该委托任何人，但自己的大量硬币。您应该运行你自己的Bitcoin客户端，并保持脱机，复制和加密的驱动器上的备份文件在任何重大持有硬币。所有的交流，钱包网站和零售网点，应当推定受到影响。

这并不是说，市民应停止使用货币远离它...。它只是一个警告，人们在Bitcoins做业务时，应注意。现实情况是，联邦政府正在发动一场战争的渗透和破坏对像Bitcoin系统，所以我们应该会看到像这是对山犯下一个更加高度复杂的攻击。GOX最近。

以上GOOGLE翻译,英文原文如下:

In a March 18, 2011 press release regarding the Liberty Dollar case, the FBI admitted to waging a secret war against any private currency system that competes against the US Dollar.  In the press release, the FBI equates the use of sound money to an act of domestic terrorism.  The FBI states that it uses methods of infiltration and disruption against private citizens engaged in the use of voluntary currencies.

The FBI writes:

“Attempts to undermine the legitimate currency of this country [ie. unconstitutional Federal Reserve notes] are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism,” U.S. Attorney Tompkins said in announcing the verdict. “While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence [ie. they are voluntary systems with no victim], they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country [ie. their widespread adoption may collapse the corrupt banking system],” she added. “We are determined to meet these threats through infiltration, disruption, and dismantling of organizations which seek to challenge the legitimacy of our democratic form of government.” [ie. we will engage in acts of domestic terrorism to prevent the voluntary trade of private property.]

I think this open admission by the FBI that it engages in acts of domestic terrorism against private currency systems bears a particular importance for users of the Bitcoin monetary system.  If we look at the history of Bitcoin since it gained notoriety, we see a slew of hacking attacks against major exchanges that have indeed disrupted and undermined the currency system.

Of course, no matter what the FBI does, short of breaking the underlying Bitcoin encryption (which is impossible even for them), the monetary system will continue to function.   However, this message should put users of the monetary system on notice.

Any major exchange or retailer that comes online in the future should be treated as either a potential victim of FBI hacking attacks or as an FBI run operation that will be used to disrupt the Bitcoin market at some future date.   This means that people should be especially leery of using new exchanges or wallet sites without having an extremely thorough knowledge of who is involved and how their systems are administered.

Given the above admission by the FBI that it engages in acts of domestic terrorism to disrupt the trade of private property, we should expect any Bitcoin exchange or major retailer to have security systems strong enough to withstand a domestic terrorist attack by a US Federal agency.   If they don’t, it is highly likely that they will suffer a crippling domestic terrorist attack perpetrated by our own government.

For end users, this means you should not entrust the bulk of your coins to anyone but yourself.  You should operate your own Bitcoin client and keep any major holdings of coins off line in a file that is replicated and backed up on an encrypted drive.  All exchanges, wallet sites, and retail outlets should be presumed to be compromised.

That is not to say people should stop using the currency… far from it.  It is simply a warning that people should note when doing business in Bitcoins.   The reality is that the Federal government is waging a war of infiltration and disruption against systems like Bitcoin, so we should expect to see more highly sophisticated attacks like the one which was perpetrated against Mt. Gox recently.
