How would we know? How certain are they? We can't tell because nobody/no one would say how many bitcoins he/she has on his/her hands Tongue

we don't know if this is true or not but i think maybe fbi is holding bitcoin too but about the amount, i don't want to think about it. its better to not thinking about them and better doing what we can do to make profit for daily so we can continue for make money. about the amount, i think its their biggest secret and they don't want to tells to every body.

Most certainly the FBI holds alot of Bitcoin, although I don't believe they hold more than anyone else in the world.

Well like what you've said, We can't say it. Though, I'd still believe if you said CIA. *Conspiracy Theory* We all know that CIA holds a lot of things. For sure they are are the one who gives out leads about those people who holds a lot of Bitcoins. As some of the people say, In CIA nothing is impossible. They could do whatever they want and also, they could manipulate everything. I'll not be shocked if I knew that they are also the one manipulating Bitcoin's market.

Also, Government or Powerful/Rich People. This is quite interesting as we know that Many of these powerful and rich people, always try to find ways not to pay higher taxes. They could probably invest their money in Bitcoin for them to avoid taxes and also to gain more profit. Especially that the trend of Bitcoin today is quite favorable in their favors.

LOL

who knows?

But I am sure they did not pay for a single satoshi, they simply rob it from people who mostly (not always) worked hard for their coins.... Grin

That is the advantage of being the biggest bully in the playground. You can make up arbitrary rules, and rob others by blaming them for not following these rules. Sad

I am thinking the same. FBI is just using their advantage as a " rule bullies". We all know many things about bitcoin being holded by higher ups because of a crime, and where do we think they are using that? Since the silk road, there is a lot of bitcoin in hands of FBI.

I think this is possible, the amount of seized Bitcoins by FBI from scam crypto companies and hackers is damn to high. Just recently, after FBI seized a scam company, ETH pumped a lot.

Good observation and I do believe so, that FBI has a bigger stash of bitcoins. We dont know because its confidential and they operate stealth fully.Many underground trading sites are already busted,seized and closed down.

Probably not the biggest number in the world, but almost certainly within the US. It is extremely beneficial for the government to hold on to bitcoin if keep in mind the great potential that it holds for the future. Now whether or not it is beneficial for bitcoin users is another matter as the governments intentions will probably not align with ours. None the less what can you do about this situation. If I remember correctly the government had an auction for the old silk road owner's bitcoin wallet address, this is the proof in the pudding.

I'm not quite sure. We all know that there many issues involving those organization. USA is on of the leading in bitcoin industry and USA is wide, we can't be sure that it is on FBI. We don't have enough evidences to believe that. FBI is not the only organization there that is connected to bitcoin. Who knows, what if it's just a cover up for a much bigger organization. Its just a theory, there's no certainty to that

Indeed, it seems the U.S Government now running the show

I don't think U.S will just sit back and watch the show rather jump in.
Bitcoin is spiking since January, the time President TRUMP took the office.
I was curious though, I often ask myself who are the guys that are really pumping money in the bitcoin in the recent months, perhaps is ....

The first question we have to ask ourselves why did "Satoshi" left bitcoin??? Perhaps, the cowboys has taken over Grin

These are just my thoughts and nothing more.

I love theories like these but I'd say it's more of CIA than FBI Cheesy

We know that the US government made TOR and bitcoin was first huge on TOR network (deepweb) and also the maker of bitcoin is not known. Why's that? Well maybe that's because they don't want us to know rather than the creator likes being anonimous.. Who knows, but it's interesting to think about it. :p

Well...

Isn't him the creator of Bitcoin?

Anyway, I don't believe anything close to FBI holing any amount of coins at all. Perhaps FBI agents trying to profit from it, sure, but FBI itself? lol

Wtf is wrong with you guys. Stop with conspiracy theories about everything.

They have much more powerful and widely accepted currency than bitcoin and that is USD, they can buy almost anything or anyone with it so no FBI isn't holding bitcoins for their own use or to make the US economy stronger.

No I don't. I'm not too familiar with the FBI, but I know enough that I don't think they'd care to hold large amounts if it. I mean, why would they? Sure bitcoin is a big part of some investigations, but how would it help them by holding tons of bitcoins themselves?

No I believe that the genius Mr S Nakamoto does. And he will possibly be the richest man on the Earth, ever.

I don't think so. There is no connect between FBI and Bitcoin.

Why would the FBI have a huge amount of coins,the coins they have confiscated are the auctioned and so i really do not think they will be holding the coins because of their past auctions,so this is entirely a speculation which has no truth in it.

But how do we know where all the coins went? Just because they auction some doesn't mean they use the new money to buy more or they keep some of the confiscated ones. It only makes sense the FBI is collecting Bitcoin now because if it becomes huge they will not have any unless they get their hands on it now for cheap which is exactly what they are doing.

It is an another great conspiracy though but it will just stay like that and nothing we can do about it but in my own opinion I think if there is a department or group of people that holds the big amount of Bitcoin is non other than the Chinese people because they almost capitalize the mining of it and we all know that Chinese is a smart in terms of numbers and fluctuations.

Who knows? If they are holding the most number of bitcoins? Possibly or possibly not? They are making some drama that they don't want to support bitcoin but in reality they are the ones who has the most or they are telling the truth that they really not into taking an interest with bitcoin. FBI,US They always hide something from the people.

If you replace "the FBI" with "the Government" then yes, it is quite possible that government agencies learned about Bitcoin's potential in the past.
And since that time decided to buy a significant number of coins, just in case Bitcoin will become a real big thing in the future (when 1 BTC will be worth 1 million USD or more in next 20 years).
However, this whole discussion is nothing but one big conspiracy theory as there is no proof to back it up.

I clearly disagree with you on this matter. The US Government has the power to issue paper money, US dollars, and they don't need digital assets. They're controlling the world's economy.

After btc-e ambush, FBI maybe seized many bitcoins. We can't know this.

Yes we do not know, but most probably yes. We dont know how the FBI works as some of their jobs are done secretly. But I think they own a substantial amount of bitcoin from their raids, seizures counter intel works and so forth.

U.S Government first underestimate the power of bitcoins. Later on, when the silk road was invented then they saw the full potential of bitcoin. And understands he who controls the bitcoin will control the financial world in the future. then they started digging for information about bitcoins and they pretty much got everyone in the circle i guess and the took over from there.
