Topic: The NSA created "CIA Project" Bitcoin - Gavin Bell (aka..Gavin Andresen in 2008) - page 3. (Read 5476 times)

Whoever Satoshi was he didn't invent Bitcoin alone. It was a collaboration between Satoshi, Hal Finney and Ray Dillinger building on the previous work of Adam Back and others.

not that it really matters, but that makes it sound like Finney invented Bitcoin, not Satoshi.
Satoshi referend POW in his white paper first, did he not?

TOR did and still does serve a good purpose for the US military (and US LE) as well as US public policy (as allowing people in other countries to practice freedom of speech). It is a very good point that the government does still not control TOR nor do they have any kind of "back door" to TOR.

I do not believe that the NSA (or any other part of the US government) created bitcoin, but even if they did a very similar principle applies.

Nope. Saying that highly suggests you don't really understand how bitcoin, or open-source ideas in general, work(s).

BULLSHIT

All I know is they can't hack wallets, that's why they had to get him while a wallet was open, so all the other wallets not open are still filled with SR coin.

It wouldn't surprise me if they tracked him through TOR though.

It was a flaw in the website captcha.

The government didn't create bitcoin. The cypherpunks created bitcoin in one way or another.

@ jonald_fyookball quote: "But it wasn't until Satoshi invented Bitcoin that it became possible".

*Actually, bitcoin didn't become possible until Hal Finney figured out his "RPOW” could be added on top of Adam Back’s “HashCash” to create the solution for the Byzantine General’s Problem which prevented systems like BitGold/Bitcoin from being a reality.

Let's see TOR was a NSA project (Naval Intelligence under NSA)

Most crypto think tanks and players have been funded by groups or projects that lead back to the NSA, whose job it is to be a central depository for crypto related ideas and development.

NSA most likely have insiders in any crypto related project and if Satoshi was a project, it doesn't really matter now.

It is the currency of the underground, drugs (often connected to CIA) and gambling (SEALS with Clubs is that a possble reference to Navy Seals or Naval Intelligence).

Unless you are doing huge numbers and hanging out in the USA I guess it doesn't matter if they can track who is really moving btc around.

Will they steal from wallets? I doubt it, their abilities are most likely just related to tracking movement if they have any involvement at all.

Who knows, maybe they are btc and using the dough for black ops projects.

As long as your own btc wallet is secure and the users keep coming into the network, the value is real.

All crypto related players and projects eventually lead back to intelligence org's IMO and they have back doors in Windows and most OS's now, so the spooks know who you are. Just read the Snowden doc's on how backdoored ECC is now. The spooks know everything, if you are outside the USA and not doing drugs, I doubt they will ever bother you over btc. No one has explained yet how Silk Road fell, his lawyer motioned for docs to show the original breach in TOR or BTC that led to him. No response yet, it may be the NSA.

So what if you're not doing anything major that is illegal.

FWIW, it doesn't matter who created bitcoin. The code is the code. That's kinda the whole point. You could prove to me that the CIA/NSA/PaulKrugman/Whoever created bitcoin and it wouldn't influence my desire to use it or hold it at all.

people have been trying to create digital cash since the 80s...
That's no secret.

But it wasn't until Satoshi invented Bitcoin that it became possible.

If you would also like, there is a Conspiracy coin in the alt markets

Welcome to Bitcoin!

This is just dumb, honestly. I hate this theory as it never holds up.
