Wouldn’t surprise me at all to be honest, I’m a huge conspiracy believer.
I was working with Crandall at Reed College just before he died, he hated what the NSA was doing to APPLE, he called them a bunch of FASCIST ASSHOLES(NSA), Steve Jobs was the last hold-out, Gates had been in bed with NSA all along since early 1990's, Job's didn't want to go along, he didnt' want Apple to become just another FRONT for the GOV spy state,
It's interesting that people say that BITCOIN didn't have the best CRYPTO people around, but CRANDALL wrote the book on primes, and Steve Jobs, gave Crandall the keys to the kingdom, Crandall was the king of Crypto for Apple, There is NO DOUBT that NSA killed Jobs, and then put in the New pussy asshole to run the company. What's more interesting is working back-ward and looking at the people who were the crypto-mentors for Job's..
Where now? I would say Zimmerman, and others that followed that group, if they're still alive, if they are then they are targets.
What about BITCOIN? Smart people are working on BTC 2.0++ that isn't NSA tainted, let's recall here again that SHA256 the hash of all btc, is NSA, and that the entire system of validation is ECDSA secp256k1 which is also NSA, ...
NSA rolled bitcoin, but there is no reason that the need to OWN bitcoin
Lastly, the CIA invented the word 'conspiracy theory' in 1970's, so as to detract from truth, when does something become 'conspiracy truth"??
Like the 'man' used to say, we think of nothing when a colony of ants can build a hill, but we question that a group of men can organize to defraud and enslave other men? How do we deny? That there are men who rule? and Kill as they wish?
