Epstein knew about Bitcoin back in 2011

[Hamza2424]

A June 2011 letter found in the “Epstein files” shows Epstein calling Bitcoin a “brilliant idea” while warning about “serious flaws.”
According to CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju, Epstein invested in BTC and crypto projects but never believed Bitcoin would go mainstream. Instead of holding, he preferred trading.
In a 2017 exchange, he simply replied “No” when asked whether Bitcoin was worth buying..
According to Odaily, Epstein was aware of Bitcoin by 2011 and engaged with the early crypto community via emails, discussions with tech figures, and connections to ventures tied to the Bitcoin ecosystem  but there’s no verified evidence that he was involved with Bitcoin’s creation or that he held any foundational role.
Is Epstein part of Bitcoin’s foundational development.?

Bro what are we even discussing about here, I don't even want to talk about this animal, he is the worst. I saw some images and I cannot resist but to say something about him and his friends in those videos. No doubt he died in prison and how that happen can be a mystery, but he made powerful friends and maybe tried to play with them too with the evil things they have been doing.

Keep btc away from this, I have this feeling they are doing all this on purpose, like they are touching every aspect of life like religion, technology, politics, media etc. What is next, they are just using old emails and pictures and releasing them now for what!

There is no strong evidence to suggest that Eipstein was involved in the fundamental development of Bitcoin. The contributions made by Eipstein were only indirectly paid to Bitcoin core contributors who they were running out of funds at the time  (Source). So I personally do not consider this to be evidence of Eipstein's direct involvement. I think everything that is being discussed in the media is just speculation that still lacks strong evidence regarding Eipstein's relationship with the fundamental development of Bitcoin. And even if Eipstein knew about Bitcoin from the beginning I don't think that can be used as strong evidence of his involvement.

The discussion about Epstein has become very interesting lately, not just because of those rumors. There are also links being made to some of the world's major figures. There's never been any evidence that he was Satoshi. Many speculate, but without proof, we can only regard him like everyone else who owns and trades Bitcoin. Still, this news is quite intriguing to follow, though some media may have made it seem exaggerated.

He can't be satoshi, someone this evil can't be that smart and intelligent, I don't know how intelligent was Epstein but he can't be him and on what grounds people are saying both can be the same. I don't see any strong proof that verifies if or even that direct people into thinking that Epstein could be Satoshi.

This is really absurd and not an acceptable reality and I don't want to believe it too. He just talked about blockchain technology and btc and showed interest for investing and donating funds to the devs. But lately all this has been shared by channels like fire and what they want is just manipulation in the mind of people. We should avoid this fuss really.

Bitcoin has been created as an outside thing, without anything to do with mainstream networks. And Epstein is someone from the mainstream's core. Therefore, he and Bitcoin are like water and oil: they don't mix.

However, since Bitcoin was something innovative inside financial matters, naturally it would call the attention from everyone who is heavily into money. But by what you said, he didn't develop interest for BTC in any moments, just like every other personalities who have been saying Bitcoin is a bubble, a ponzi and a bad idea.

There is no evidence to suggest that he was part of Bitcoin's development in its early years. As far as it goes now it is that he is associated with some of the core Bitcoin developers, but that has nothing to do with Bitcoin and that's it. So whatever rumors are related to him, I don't think it's necessary to seriously link him to Bitcoin just because he knew about Bitcoin in those early years.

People just want to connect something that it is not. And since btc was invented in 2008, he's not in any way part of the early developers. He may had showed interest in buying some btc but that was it. People just want tp color something that is black and white though.

If he was does that Mean Bitcoin can be considered evil?
There's nothing to guarantee that the thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that have assisted in Bitcoin development
Are good people.

Who they are should be different from what they created or assisted.
The worse are people that are stupid enough to believe that Epstein is Satoshi and because of this Bitcoin would fall to zero.

In those years Bitcoin was quite popular in activities linked to crime. Between 2011 and 2014, many people learned about and started using Bitcoin because of the Silk Road marketplace. It's not surprising that Epstein was among those who learned about it early. I don't think he had any role in the creation of Bitcoin. In fact, once it became clear that Bitcoin could be easily traced, its use in criminal activities decreased significantly. People started using privacy focused altcoins.

I took the time to read through the file released by the

Epstein socialized with a lot of top men when he was alive. He made connections with men who invest in stocks and other investment. Through the file, I never found anything relating to Bitcoin though, that don't mean you are wrong. Even if I was expect you to share a reference.

If he knew Bitcoin around 2011, he is one lucky fellow. Although him and many others who were of Bitcoin did not make good use of the opportunity.

[Rustam Meraj]

Although some of digital money plans were paid for by his gifts to MIT Media Lab, he did so in mostly money way and long after start of Bitcoin Whitepaper in 2008. I think that all talk about him being part of design of Bitcoin has no proof; he saw item as trading tool to earn some money, but not game changing tech. So 2026 file release makes it clear that Epstein was curious watcher and small time investor who had no control over tech starts of Bitcoin or their uncontrolled control.

He does have strong connections to the global elite, The documents and testimonies focus more on money, property, politics, and his social network and yes not crypto.

Who the fuck cares?  The creep is dead and rotting in hell.

Associating Epstein with bitcoin is too exaggerated just because there is that conversation in the email message. What needs to be investigated more is XRP and XLM not bitcoin, but because the bear market momentum has just started so some bitcoin haters are trying to raise this issue as if Epstein has an important role in the early development of Bitcoin.

Even if he had connections with Bitcoin at is early stages, does it matter? Maybe he supported the Bitcoin project financially, but this doesn't mean that Bitcoin is connected to his evils. Bitcoin had even grown bigger than Satoshi. Bitcoin is a currency that is independent, so these negative attacks using Epstein's link will have no effect on the coin.

I think such things cannot harm any big project or crypto even if they want to, they should not happen. If there are many such incidents, then it will have a very bad impact on Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin is already successful in many ways why would such things threaten Bitcoin? I am against it because it can have a big impact on these people and their countries not on any currency or investment. Although Bitcoin has already come down and if such things happen, the price of Bitcoin and its reputation that it has earned over many years will be damaged because of these people. It is irresponsible to think that such things should affect Bitcoin. Bitcoin moves up and down for other big reasons this is not one of them, so we should remain calm.

It seems that there is no accurate evidence regarding Epstein's involvement in the development of Bitcoin because from a lot of the nomenclature that we read there is no evidence that points to him and there is almost no concrete evidence that Epstein is Satoshi Nakamoto. Epstein was not an important figure in the birth of bitcoin because there was no proof and he only knew about bitcoin like several other people but not from the original builders. Anyone can create a narrative about this and not even just Epstein because previously there were several people who said he was Satoshi Nakamoto, but there is no evidence that can accurately verify the truth because the creator of bitcoin himself prefers not to be revealed to the public and remains anonymous until now.
