People give factions of the government way too much credit.

Nakamoto, SAtoshi

The clues were always there, people don't wanna see it...

Maybe it's NASA (NAkamoto SAtoshi) using the hashing power of both Bitcoin and SETI@Home to hide the existance of aliens together with the Men in Black. Grin
And the lizards, they're the ones who're really behind it all!

its the secret illuminati communication network

My negative trust rating is reflective of a personal vendetta by someone on default trust.

WOAH! Guys, this was just meant as a parody thread, I wasn't seriously speculating as such... This was just a dumb idea I had when stoned and reading about prism. I wasn't trying to troll, and I didn't think it would wind up three pages back! I mean... This is the noob thread.

This is hilarious though... you guys are awesome.

this is bitcointalk.org what did you expect? the mods are retarded, no one can take a joke, no one understands sarcasm and you can't trust a single person, and every thing you say is taken way to seriously. most of the people on this board need to grow a fuckin pair.

I think it's a "monkeys and typewriters" kind of deal.  You know:  the old notion that if you put enough monkeys to work banging away at keyboards, eventually at random they will write the works of Shakespere.

Likewise, if you put enough chips to work running a hash algorithm, eventually you will get a hash code that reads "To be or not to be, that is the question."  Actually, it will only be the letters "A" though "F" found in that quote, because of hexidecimal limitations, but they'll be in order.

DISCLOSURE:  If I continue to post on these forii - and the word isn't in yet on that - all posts should have the <scarcasm> </scarcasm> tag around it, but for convenience only serious posts will be so marked.  Thank you.

Actually, I've been lurking on this site for a while, and I don't think that's exactly true. 

You're right that you can't trust most people; those who can be trusted, e.g. John of escrow fame on the hardware-buy threads, are elevated to the level of saints.  As for most people, BTC is a gold rush, which attracts con men of both long and short persuasions, and greedy idiots for them to prey on.  So, yeah.

Satoshi explained it all in this previously unknown video unearthed by the Lifeboat foundation:

And what else is it sending from your personal computer?

It's not sending anything from your personal computer. Just check the packets or source code.

However, if I were a large state agency what better way to yield the most powerful hashing network on the planet than create a digital currency out of work produced. I mean, think about how much hashing power the network has and will have in the near future. A single 6990 can brute force passwords in minutes... now multiply that by...

"Solve this block and receive a 25BTC reward!"

Wait, what did I just solve?

Amazing!  Grin well said

While the idea of some gov/agency involvement in BitCoin is not entirely far-fetched, the code/algorithm itself is fairly simple and doing what it claims. The likelihood of backdoors or non-understood effects is small.

A greater possibility is that the entire bitcoin concept/operation has been created and supported for some generally unknown further purpose.
