There have been some signs that US Federal sees Bitcoin as a problem. When the US and its supporters have a problem, they usually call upon the CIA. The CIA has destroyed several organizations, groups and economies (foreign and domestic) internally through manipulation of key members, suppliers and so forth.
Have you suspected any CIA activity directly or indirectly in Bitcoin-related affairs?

It seems that US Federal sees Bittorent as a problem as well. How are they doing with destroying that? CIA: Hey, Vladimir, here is a suitcase full of cash, do your damnest to destroy Bitcoin. Vladimir: OK, cool. It's a deal, I'll troll on bitcointalk much harder from now on. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

It would be fun, seeing them attempting to destroy bitcoin. Especially since there are no key members, suppliers and so forth. Bitcoin is just technological advancement waiting to happen. Can't put the genie back in the bottle. Sorry mister CIA government banker, you lose.

Back on topic, no. They'll be targeting SR directly (and having a heck of a headache in this case) , and not the legitimate users of this technology.

and then you have the people that think because Bitcoin is semi anonymous companies on the fiat/Bitcoin interface (exchanges) can some how avoid following the regulations of the country they operate in related to fiat monies.... face the facts keep it in Bitcoins or prepare to deal with legislation, nearly all countries now have AML/KYC type legislation I know you don't care if people operating exchanges go to jail to protect your anonymity - just curious as why you would think they would want to... afaik it isn't a very profitable enterprise

I wonder how much damage they could do by buying large amounts of coins and then selling them off in an attempt to create and pop bubbles.

The Bitcoin economy is currently a tiny fraction of the smallest thing the CIA would bother their time with.
|
Do not waste your time debating whether Bitcoin can work. It does work.
"Early adopters will profit" is not a sufficient condition to classify something as a pyramid or Ponzi scheme. If it was, Apple and Microsoft stock are Ponzi schemes.
There is no such thing as "market manipulation." There is only buying and selling.

Clearly this is the CIA probing to ascertain whether their infiltration has yet been detected/suspected.

You've got to remember that bitcoin is small-fry.
If it wasn't, it would be an absolutely trivial matter for a US governmental agency to use a 51% attack or something similar to bring down the network. They have some of the brightest minds in coding, and a eleven-figure budgets, we wouldn't stand a chance.
