Let's assume they did for a moment.

Maybe #bitcoin started as covert intelligence operation, maybe not.

So why did the NSA abandon #bitcoin ?

Because they lost control, or they realized that Bitcoin is uncontrollable.

Also people cannot be controlled in the long term; the desire for freedom is stronger. That's why #Bitcoin is freedom.

In my head cannon #BTC was initially created by a group of government employees (combined to include retired, military & contractors) who saw what was coming & decided to use their combined resources to create it. This is only a hypothesis as Iโ€™ve never seen any evidence.

Granted that comes with my self-acknowledged internal biases as a retired veteran & government employee. Long-game operation that slowly plays out would be a logical strategic decision.

Beyond that, I thought it was overall accepted as knowledge that #Satoshi was an invented persona to be a symbol of #revolution & #freedom. Same as V in โ€œV is for Vendetta.โ€ Granted, Iโ€™ve been wrong before. Thatโ€™s the beauty of free-thinking. We can all choose our own paths & theories.

Lastly, I laugh every time someone calls me a โ€œfedโ€ as if itโ€™s an insult. Far too many will never know the price others have paid for them to speak their willful ignorance. Which is completely what I still believe, freedom of speech for all. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Š
