Instead of accusing me as a troll, would it be sensible to assess risks, no matter how outrageous they seem to be, instead of ignoring them?

-Are you familiar with the history of US intelligence agencies, how they cooperate with software companies, telecom operators and the media?
-Do you also take similar stance towards people who pose critical questions towards companies you have invested in?

Although I am relatively new to Bitcoin, I have invested enough to care about its potential risks.

The timing of this post is not intended to influence the upcoming fork and the Segwit activation and in reality it will not have any effect on them.

Someone posted this article to Reddit today and its claims should warrant at least some discussion here. I am relatively new to Bitcoin and I think other newcomers me included would be very interested in hearing what the more knowledgeable people here think about these accusations.

I would urge you to check that out, because it contains videos and other material and overall is more thorough than the plain text below.


Bitcoin Conspiracy Theory & Proof
This is the real Satoshi Nakamoto, he left the Bitcoin Project when US Government took access of Bitcoin's network alert key and main code repo. The US Gov noticed that cryptocurrency was becoming a growing threat to their tax farms, fueled drug trade, and undermined the USD. Satoshi got a visit from Federal investigators, who insisted he collaborate with them. They agreed to keep Bitcoin open source and allow the organization to grow naturally...


US Government has access to Bitcoin's Master Passwords due to NATSEC
Cryptocurrency has the potential to be as destabilizing as a nuke, and it's in a country's best interest to tax and regulate instead of competing with Cryptocurrencies.

These emerging markets challenge the World Bank, and with a relatively small market cap is under threat of bad actors like North Korea and ISIS who have enough in their war chests to buy out the world's Bitcoin supply tomorrow. The US has the root password keys to the Bitcoin project, so other countries aren't able to weaponize prices. If Pentagon was not controlling the master passwords of Bitcoin, it would be the biggest threat to National Security to date.

Satoshi Nakomoto left shortly after our Government started its involvement. He now denies everything, in part likely because the truth of Bitcoin's control would jeapardize Bitcoin's future, as well as the key access being top secret & classified.


Proof & Propaganda — Satoshi Nakamoto Identity Leaks
Independent media hired private investigators who found Satoshi, who long exited the project due to dislike of government involvement. Reporters found him living a modest private life near LA, and when initially confronted did not initially deny his involvement (as reported by initial doxxers).

The story went viral, Satoshi realized his mistake, and released a "cryptic" public statement, in which he categorically denied his involvement in Bitcoin, stated he worked as an engineer for a Government contractor, but also admitted that during 2009-2010 he was self employed but did not specify what he was doing other than the fact that he had nothing to do with Bitcoin.

The video on the right hand panel is Satoshi's official statement, in which he denies any connection with Bitcoin, but cites involvement as an Engineer with an unnamed US Government Contractor.


David Andersen - Potential NSA Plant?
Took over Bitcoin after Satoshi - Gavin's comments on the LTB podcast #217 (iirc) are very telling. He implies that people would be more worried if other governments than their own had some control over Bitcoin. There isn't much information about his past which creates a lack of proof of past connections, currently an evangelist for Bitcoin with a globalist agenda who has become one of the biggest cryptocurrency players despite seemingly appearing up out of nowhere in 2010 to work alongside Satoshi on Bitcoin


False Flag Craig Wright
Whether he is an Intelligence Officer or an actor hired by Satoshi, Australian Craig Wright is not the founder of Bitcoin. He failed to provide any proof but claimed to be Satoshi. His job is to missinform the public by muddying the waters for the general public. Part of the reason behind the speculation is that he was able to instantly gain the ear of the Mainstream Media despite have no proof whatsoever for his claims, which was not forthright mentioned in his interviews.


Eastern Promises: Alexander Vinnik's Kremlin Ties (Putin's Laundromat)
The arrest of Russian national and fall guy Alexander Vinnik in Greece for tax evasion charges in the US, shows a massive vested interest that the US has against crimes that undermine BTC.

Vinnik had ties to the Kremlin, which was possibly behind other exchange hacks to undermine the US's position in BTC It is a possibility that the new US sanctions on Russia, for which 855 US diplomatic workers that were expelled out of Russia were triggered by Vinniks connections to the Kremlin.

The US sanctions were retaliation for Kremlins involvement in hacking Bitcoin exchanges, which hurt the US Gov Bitcoin interest.

I don't have a background in cryptography, so bear with me if this is an obvious question.

Hardware wallets like Ledger Nano S can be used to set up multiple cryptocurrency wallets using a shared seed word. To be more specific, I can use one Ledger Nano S to access one Bitcoin wallet, one Ethereum wallet and so on. They all share the same seed word, which is used to derive the private key of the wallets.

So, is there any added risk when one hardware wallet is used to access multiple different cryptocurrency wallets? For instance, is it possible that the Ethereum blockchain data could at some point be broken to obtain private keys/seeds and using this information also access the Bitcoin wallet, or vice versa?

Keep in mind that there are many insecure hashing (MD4, MD5, SHA-1..) and encryption (DES, RSA with short key...) methods nowadays. In the future, probably a lot more.
