They aren’t even quiet about it. They just write a fucking paper about how they can’t run permanent deficits if people can use #Bitcoin and that the solution is to tax it greater than the delta on currency devaluation and explicitly make it illegal… they are tyrants through to the core.
Imo, there is o need to stress over it. Some randos publish a paper and everyone panicky calls it "an attack from EU" forgetting that half of the EU countries actually act as a safe haven for Bitcoin hodlers. Publishing such a nonsense paper is the same rage bating and fear mongering technique as what online content creators resort to fishing for engagement.
