That's why countries like Russia and China banned bitcoin, while USA is allowing it to prosper unhindered.

After all, if the gov hated bitcoin so much then it was very easy for them to take it down:
they may just arrest/blackmail the devteam/distributors of Bitcoin,
and/or block the bootstrap node IPs that the BTC wallets require to join the network when they are launched.

It would be that easy

Don't know about you, but I think it's all a global conspiracy theory and bitcoin our weapons in the hands of the army of positive fighters against the corrupt government financial system. Yes, perhaps the US is the main owner of bitcoin, but the blockchain allows you to track this situation in real time. Everything is in our hands.

No one know for sure if bitcoin was made by the CIA or NSA cause there's no proof to back it up and in this community we believe in proof. However, the only we heard and saw about Bitcoin was the white paper, source code and satoshi mail archive right before Bitcoin creation.

Im not buying this conspiracy theory.

If the U.S agencies created it for their global operations to have access to funds,
How exactly would this work if they were undercover in Iraq or Afghanistan for
example? How exactly would bitcoin be used? To me it doesn't make sense.

If it was created by government agencies why are we using it? An open siurce,
unregulated, decentralised global currency giving power to the people.

Bitcoin was not the development of the United States is nothing! Everyone knows that the Creator of bitcoin in the first one person who does not give his identity, which suggests that it is just an individual. Secondly, bitcoin is an Asian technology and the US will catch up with the Japanese on the speed of digital technology development for a long time.

Is this a new conspiracy theory?
What is the benefit of the United States?
Will the United States be able to control it as it spreads?
Or is it a process without goals?

On what basis will they arrest people from many nations that are working on a OpenSource project? The thing is, most developers contribute to the project without being anonymous, but that does not mean that things cannot change. The moment when developers are harassed by governments, then people will start to contribute anonymously and the government will not be able to hunt them down.

Satoshi is a good example of this, because he/she/they are still anonymous.    You do not need to know who these people are, you only need to know that their code is legit and secure.

Where did the internet originate from? Wasn't it from U.S military communications? Doesn't matter where bitcoin came from, it is still solid

[BitcoinHodler]

it will come down to your understanding of how bitcoin works!

in a decentralized peer to peer network you can not control, ban, manipulate, fake,... anything. it is not just about the project being open source (that only covers part of it) but it is about it being peer to peer. like torrents network, Tor network,... you can't ban these things anymore than you can ban bitcoin.

Why do you think bitcoin is the creation of someone who is asian, given that you said yourself no one knows who the creator of bitcoin is? People have tried for years with all sorts of skillsets to identify where Satoshi was from and no one has succeeded. Of course Satoshi itself is Japanese but that does not mean the person behind the name was.

but the Alien Tech theory was more fun, man!

CIA and NSA become richest people on the world when real people who made bitcoin. so, you thing people here same agent and join signature campaigne?. i dont thing so

[burky155]

We don't know and actually we can't know what to believe anymore.. Everyone says different things. Thousands of news around every new day. No one believes in Satoshi Nakamura in these days.. I am not sure that he is real or not. Some people says about the USA some Russia that who found the crypto money. Now CIA and NSA is in the game.. There are really big questions and make me disturb about all cryptocurrency..

[Marbelli]

we will not be able to know exactly who it was made of, so let's just accept the fact that the creator of bitcoin will always remain anonymous

[Prompyboo]

I think that we will never know who is the true creator of bitcoin. Now we have to use this technology for the benefit of ourselves and other people.

[Maestro75]

No conspiracy theory or assumption will make me think it was not an individual or Satoshi that created the bitcoin. Ok let us even imagine the America CIA made it, will that be a good reason for China to boycott it and put itself at a bad spot? Let Russia and China not join, we the rest of the world support bitcoin.

[boakyei]

This assertion will be hard to believe that CIA created this cryptocurrency that has a lot of government seeking to shut it down or restrict it uses.

[pavka]

I think this is a very fantastic theory that has nothing to do with the history of the creation of Bitcoin. In any case, I’m worried about one important question - if these were all special services, then why create a coin that they can’t practically control?

[Gamblet]

I do not believe that Bitcoin was created by the special services. I think the emergence of Bitcoin is also potentially dangerous for special services. But the special services can control those who own Bitcoin and are not worried about anonymity.

[kucritt]

wow, is that true? i have many question if its true, the main question is, why? why american agency create the Bitcoin and blockchain system. second question is why they introduce name satoshi nakamoto as the creator of bitocin?

[fulled]

Its not a problem if a technology created by Agencies like NSA or CIA, as long as the technology can help our civilization better that should okey, like GPS and Internet was
