how did you come to that conclusion? maybe NSA created the technology that eventually led to BTC's inception, but that doesn't mean they created it.
TOR was created by the U.S. government.. so would you say the U.S. government created the .onion websites (such as SR and whatever other illegal websites there are).

NSA made the series of SHA algorithms, and Bitcoin uses SHA-256 but by no means did the NSA create Bitcoin.
That's like saying the guy that created a basketball hoop created the NBA.

Turing made the NSA. He even looks like one. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Ft1.gstatic.com%2Fimages%3Fq%3Dtbn%3AANd9GcRmVpsMkld5UjNAWJQphVFLc0i3OjzQuKLGYy20K2xNtBuWtIu_&t=665&c=mO_pJJXVKTAxUQ)

There is actually a credible theory and some evidence that NSA researchers were the likely creators of BitCON.
But I can't find the thread readily.
Obviously the OP is not evidence.

So let me get this straight.
The NSA created a revolutionary disruptive technology that is likely to fundamentally threaten the power of the very entities that they are in the business of protecting?

So far it seems to be not threatening at all and going according to NWO plans very well: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=338975.msg3636026#msg3636026

The NSA standardized it and guided it's creation but did not invent the concept of it. There were other (less secure) ways of doing this before SHA-2 not created by the NSA.
