ah...


The proof is THAT there is no proof. duh...

If there was proof, I want some of my tax dollars back for them sucking so bad.

On the other hand: Paying spooks with BitCoin is a terrible idea so they just might be doing it.

Wild speculations without any proof.

What are you talking about? No proof? As if a photo isn't enough...

Sorry but the evidence that this is true is the same as the evidence that dinosaurs are using bitcoin to stage a comeback.
Piloting jets?  Shocked

Not to mention I am the originator of any talk about the CIA using Bitcoin for field agents, and I don't care if they are. It's a viable method and one we should support.

The idea that governments shouldn't be using Bitcoin is absurd if we really want worldwide adoption.

EDIT: (3/14/2013) I still think this is a good idea. I know a lot of people probably ignored my original post, but this kook didn't. That said, just as with TOR, there is a very real benefit in intelligence agencies using Bitcoin to perform their operations. I'm not a CIA shill, I frankly don't care what they do, but Bitcoin is Bitcoin, we want everyone using it that wants a pseudonymous currency, from the small time nobody to the big time agency.

I just watched the documentary Thrive and I think that Satoshi must be an alien!    Shocked

Does the bitcoin network have any properties that could be related to the shape of a
torus?   Grin

j/k

That doc should make bitcoiners happy since it suggests people, to help wake up and
free themselves, to start using alternatives currencies, among other things.    


Bitcoin was planned by aliens long before we even dreamed about things like that.
Here is the video recorded before 2005 and posted on youtube in 2009:

Hypothesis: Satoshi was convinced bitcoin would become illegal and didn't want to end up like Megaupload's CEO.
Don't forget Julian Assange.

I have to disagree,  right off the bat it circles directly to this forum regarding Gavin heading to the CIA....  then it again alludes to why Satoshi never made "himself" public after inventing the technology.



Neither one of these tidbits are facts, and neither remotely constitutes any proof that the CIA uses bitcoin.

At best, the random people involved in the CIA thread are spouting (completely uninformed) speculation and hearsay.

Allusions that Satoishi is actually the CIA are specifically that.  Allusions.  And if it was true, than there wouldn't really be any point in Gavin giving a presentation on bitcoin to it's actual creators, invalidating any of the above hearsay.  (Should we get all conspiratorial about it and say that the CIA invited Gavin to provide plausible deniability that they had any prior knowledge of bitcoins?)

There isn't a single verifiable fact in the article that indicates the CIA is paying spooks in bitcoins.

I would say this article is proof... that tin foil hat-types are drawn to use bitcoin. Grin

Satoshi still doesn't exist, it's a AI that will appear only in the future and will be created thanks to bitcoins. And then it will go back in the time to invent bitcoin.
Something seems wrong? Oh c'mon, time travel doesn't require logic!
