I worked for the DOD for over a decade. There are so many red flags as it pertains to the DOD’s policies on public relations. Everything he does is inconsistent with how the military operates. He’s not a spook. He’s either prior military and using his experience to sound legit to a bunch of bitcoiners who are ignorant about the DOD, or he’s currently serving and his whole story about being assigned to study bitcoin is a lie. His ego is so big he actually believes he’ll be recognized by his organization for his “brilliant” thesis and if it gains enough traction, the Government will adopt his thesis and glorify him in the history books.
