#548: Operation Choke Point

another great (and very detailed) resource on the #debanking and "Operation Chokepoint 2.0" conspiracy theories being wielded against the #CFPB and #FDIC from #PatrickMcKenzie (Patio11).

#NathanMcCauley, the broligarch who runs "crypto bank" #AnchorageDigital, asked Patrick to retract the post. He refused.

Fintech Business Weekly is easily the best outlet covering attacks on #CFPB by crypto creeps like #MarcAndreessen (#a16z) and #BrianArmstrong (#Coinbase). The #debanking and “Operation Chokepoint 2.0” conspiracy theories are being weaponized by these #NerdReich bros to deregulate what is already an incredible fraudulent industry.

@GottaLaff the crypto bros are big mad about the collapse of #Silvergate and Signature banks (AKA "the big crypto banks"). the conspiracy theory they have about the #FDIC is called "Operation Chokepoint 2.0" if you want to look into it.

(the reality is that Silvergate and Signature banks were massive money laundering hubs, moving literally trillions of dollars a year in untracked funds outside of all money laundering regulations. they were both intimately connected to #FTX)

A new US debate over debanking emerges, led by Marc Andreessen's concerns about politically exposed clients and banking access for crypto. Is this a political maneuver or risk aversion?

@sj_zero i really hate to admit that i learned something from trump this year. Even tho he did drop a massive lie about how #inflation started, in his speech at the #bitcoin2024 conference, he did mention #operationChokepoint. which i did not know about and yeah, its very serious.

to be honest, he probably only knows about it because he let it continue under his watch but yeah, i still have to hand it to him, i had no idea about it.

(dropped the #minds[.]com mention because they block people who have a bad word to say about #bigpharma, and they are also cloudflare)

@lanodan @kaia oh the bankers have been doing pre-crime stuff in the financial realm too, dont worry about that, if you live amongst the 99% and try to setup a business that accepts bitcoin you'll get first-hand experience.

"why are we destroying this person's life again?"

"they wanted to start a business that also accepts bitcoin"

"got it, thanks"

Operation Chokepoint is back under Biden. 4 banks and 1 credit card shut down Gab in the past month alone. We have spoken to other alt tech platforms who are experiencing the same, but have not gone public with it yet. This is 100% targeted and political.
