It's pretty unlikely that bitcoin was allowed to get as far as it has, without them having their hooks in it.
BTC is lousy transaction money, and all the proposals to fix that essentially create a fiat banking system on top of the blockchain.
There are huge early wallets that have been idle for years.The people who own the Fed probably own those, and will therefore own the Bit-Fed.
BTC would be treated like hard drugs unless they had plans for it.
