It's very simple, just let Lenin relived, then launch a revolution.

naked short selling it down close to zero would be the worst mistake someone could make, but would make all of us very rich on the short squeeze  Grin

Me? I would gain control of 99% of the hashrate and then stop mining the instant the block reward halves lol

have fun waiting for the difficulty to adjust in that scenario

this is only 5% of bitcoin : http://www.coindesk.com/gallery-inside-top-bitcoin-mine-china/

note this : Each warehouse measured about 150 meters in length, by perhaps 20 meters wide… that’s around 3,000 square meters (32,000 ft2) In addition to the four standing warehouses, there was a steel frame that had already been erected and was awaiting completion,

so, 4 football hall ...it's only 5% of mining bitcoin power.

I would kill it the same way they are killing it now. Accept it everywhere and make it hard to buy it. This results in lot of sellers and few buyers = price going down.

So if I were .gov then I would create an ETF and then hammer BTC to death with naked shorts of my monopoly paper.

How would you try to kill bitcoin?
