"The larger story at hand is, who are the players (nations) involved, and what was the intention of this likely counterfeiting operation? Maybe the future will reveal the answers to these questions. But maybe not."
It's also odd that this story is being upvoted so much, given that the previous link 1) was reporting it when it was still actual news, and 2) has the same information and a fraction of the innuendo.
I imagine it's being upvoted because it's bloomberg. When I saw this story elsewhere last week, I assumed that it would turn out that it was a hoax, rumor, or otherwise exaggerated. Since it's now in bloomberg, that seems unlikely.
