The same tactics used back then by the Bank of England and the "Crown" are well known, and we can see that in the context of the debate on money and currency today surrounding crypto currency, there will be "counterfeiters" in this space. Fortunately due to the immutability of the Bitcoin block and extreme constraints built into the code itself, the powers that be will only be able to attack and propose "alt" coins to confuse the masses, create "forks" and diversions etc.. Good luck to everyone that's riding this horse.
