 I think this is the biggest attack vector in Bitcoin.  All those coins are one 6102 away from being easily seized by the Government.  

Then they fork the network and use their massive amount of coins to drive OG Bitcoin price down, causing market panic..... further driving OG Bitcoin down.  Next thing you know Bitcoin as we know it now is gone and govcoin is here.  

I think our best hope of resisting this is other countries sadly.  If Russia, China, etc. gets enough coins to stop their Fork attack that would be best case

 It is like you know NOTHING about bitcoin, nothing about ETFs and nothing about cryptos history all at one time, impressive.

 Its like you know nothing about human nature. When your version of Bitcoin is collapsing in price will you stay the course and not sell it to buy the more profitable fork?  Ask the BCash guys how that's working out for them, and if it was worth it.
