PayPal's BTC Surrender: How WikiLeaks Won the War

​

​

April 5th, 2010. Julian Assange pressed "publish" on a video that would shake the world. WikiLeaks had obtained classified footage from a U.S. Apache helicopter that the Pentagon never wanted you to see.

​

​The "Collateral Murder" video was 39 minutes of raw brutality. Reuters journalists—gunned down in cold blood—their cameras supposedly mistaken for weapons. When a van arrived to help the wounded, American pilots begged for permission to fire again.
​
​"Come on, let us shoot!"​
​
As smoke cleared and bodies lay bleeding, the crew laughed.

"Oh yeah, look at those dead bastards."

By exposing the true face of American aggression for the world to see, Assange had painted a target on his back that would never disappear. The empire's revenge would be swift and merciless—they would hunt him, break him, and cage him for over a decade.
​
His crime? Showing the world what American empire really looks like.

PayPal strikes back!

Several months later, in December, the financial establishment revealed its deep ties to the war machine. PayPal froze WikiLeaks' donations without warning. Visa and Mastercard followed within hours. WikiLeaks lost 95% of its revenue stream overnight.

The same banking system you trust with your life savings had revealed itself as the establishment's attack dog. They could erase anyone from the economy with a few keystrokes, no questions asked.

In his darkest hour, Assange discovered what the banking cartel feared most: money they couldn't control. Bitcoin became WikiLeaks' lifeline when every traditional institution had turned their backs. For the first time in modern history, censorship-resistant money proved its worth on the global stage.

The establishment had made a fatal error.

By weaponizing money itself, they had created the very problem Bitcoin was designed to solve.

Every frozen account became a recruitment poster for decentralized money.

For over a decade, PayPal has stood as Bitcoin's institutional enemy.

Their executives dismissed crypto as too volatile and too dangerous. Bitcoin represented everything they opposed: permissionless, unstoppable, beyond their control.

But empires built on control can't stop an idea whose time has come.

The Empire Surrenders

Fast forward to today. Paypal, in a dramatic 180, is now planning to accept BTC and crypto payments.
​
This week, the news broke...

​

​
​
The same company that fought Wikileaks, is now going to support Bitcoin and crypto for online payments...

The weapon they used against Assange is about to become the foundation of their future business model.

The gatekeepers have become the gateway...

Every Dollar You Hold Funds the War Machine

Here's what they don't want you to understand: every time you use dollars, you're funding the very system that murdered the journalists in Baghdad...

Since 1971, when Nixon severed the dollar from gold?
​
America has been at war 50 out of 53 years.
​
Bosnia, bombed to smithereens.
Afghanistan obliterated—then abandoned after 20 years!
Iraq devastated.

This isn't incompetence—it's the business model.​
​
The Federal Reserve prints money precisely in order to fund endless war.
​
Since 2001, over $8 TRILLION has been spent exporting death and destruction across the globe.
​
As your 401k bleeds out to inflation, that wealth transfers directly into Raytheon missiles and Lockheed Martin drones.

Your grocery bill goes up, and so does the body count.

The dollar isn't just slave money—it's a weapon of mass destruction you're forced to hold.
​

Breaking The Chains

But here's the beautiful irony:

While the evil empire was busy destroying, Bitcoin was growing...
​

Now it's ready to smash the very military-industrial banking complex that has produced so much misery.

Every time:

  • a Nigerian sends BTC home without Western Union's 15% cut...
  • an Argentine saves in BTC instead of disappearing pesos...
  • a Canadian trucker receives BTC donations the government can't freeze...

Their grip on humanity loosens a little more.

Bitcoin isn't just changing money—it's bringing hope to the hopeless and power to the powerless.

The same unstoppable network that saved WikiLeaks is now saving millions from financial tyranny. Just as Bitcoin's permissionless system bypassed PayPal's blockade, it's now bypassing every corrupt central bank on Earth.

Despite their power, wealth, blackmail and bribery...
​
They. Can't. Stop. Bitcoin.

The revolution is not being televised.

It's playing out in the hum of mining computers across the globe.
It's mathematical.
Every 10 minutes, another block gets mined.
Every uncensorable transaction proves the system works.
Every new bitcoiner makes it stronger.

They tried to kill it with regulations. Bitcoin didn't care.
They tried to kill it with fear and lies. Bitcoin revealed the truth.
They tried to kill it with competition. Bitcoin grew faster.
