Polish Financial Authorities Paid Youtuber to Smear Cryptocurrency

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Hello Everyone .

This is just the very tip of the iceberg. Cryptocurrency is the only real chance the people have of taking back their power. Everything else is just a smokescreen.

The Central Bank of Poland (Narodowy Bank Polski or NBP), in cooperation with the country’s Financial Supervision Authority (Komisja Nadzoru Finansowego or KNF), have paid over 90,000 PLN (Polish złoty) for an online smear campaign against cryptocurrency investments. The money went, among others, to a Polish YouTube content network which represents many popular young local content creators.

There are people that are not going to be very upset when they aren't able to pull off the scams they've been getting away with for years. Lots of things are about to change.

Narodowy Bank Polski (NFB)— has admitted to paying for social media campaigns that attacked the legitimacy of crypto-currencies. The bank spent 91,000 zloty ($27,100) on the campaigns, with the money going to Google, Facebook, and a Polish YouTube partner network called Gamellon, Money.pl reports.

The news comes after the site published a letter from NFB in which it admits it paid for the anti-crypto campaign.

While it’s not unusual for governments or agencies to issue warnings or try to educate the public on what regulators may consider risky investments, Polish financial authorities have taken it a step further, spending taxpayers’ money on a smear campaign— trying to sway public opinion against crypto assets by paying social media influences to attack them.

The bank worked in cooperation with the country’s Financial Supervision Authority, Komisja Nadzoru Finansowego (KNF).

I think the Governments are realizing what cryptocurrency and Blockchain can do, empower people
They don't want that to happen and they will try everything to do that
Even using their money power to bribe others to promote cryptocurrency as a scam

Wow. It's no surprise though. I believe half the hacks and negative coverage is coming from those who worry cryptocurrency will cause a shift in financial power. Old money versus the new. Thank you for the post, it's enlightening.

I’ve been waiting for a government to issue their own crypto and disguise it as decentralized. I think that is still to come. Anything to keep power.

Wow ! That’s something else.

Great post! I think the iceberg is huge! I'm sure we'll hear of other financial institutions and governments working in concert and alone to undermine crypto. If they were willing to spend 27K on dis-information, how much are they spending on crypto?
