from Simon Dixon Hard Talk · host Simon Dixon

Hey-Hey Sovereign Wealth Builders, Tonight we’re going LIVE with a Simon Dixon Hard Talk that connects the dots between the Blocksize War, the Epstein-era infiltration narratives, and the current Knots vs Core governance battle — through a macro, geopolitical, and Proof-of-Weapons-Network lens. My answer is simple: there have been multiple hijack attempts — and they continue today. But Bitcoin’s structure (developers, miners, nodes) makes it uniquely resilient. We’ll cover this in three parts: Part 1: Was Bitcoin Hijacked? The Infiltration Operations Explained I lay the foundation and map the four major infiltration vectors I see at play: ✅ Intelligence / Epstein (early reconnaissance + attempted influence) ✅ Silicon Valley (corporate capture, custodians, narrative steering) ✅ Wall Street (ETFs, derivatives, public-company treasuries, custody centralization) ✅ Central Banks / Regulators (Operation Chokepoint 2.0, stablecoins, CBDCs) Part 2: Hijacking Bitcoin? Simon Dixon vs Steve Patterson – BTC vs BCH Infiltration Debate This is not “BTC vs BCH” — it’s BTC infiltration vs BCH infiltration. Steve Patterson (co-author of Hijacking Bitcoin with Roger Ver) and I debate whether either side — or both — were targeted by divide-and-conquer operations, and what that means for Bitcoin’s future. Part 3: Knots vs Core: Bitcoin’s Next Governance War (Core v30 & BIP 110) We bring it right up to today: ✅ Core v30 vs BIP 110 ✅ Miner activation vs user activation dynamics ✅ Ordinals / spam / OP_RETURN policy wars ✅ What happens if an “intolerant minority” tries to soft fork? ✅ Why competing implementations may increase decentralisation — or trigger a new fracture   Read blog Watch on YouTube
