What if Satoshi Nakamoto were the NSA? What if all the currencies, crypto and fiat were slated to crash together? Might "Someone" swoop in with a solution to both, in fact placing us all onto the money/crypto of their choice? Carrot and stick, perhaps?
What is the answer?
While I don't buy the idea that Bitcoin was created by the typical government spy agency, such ideas should still be taken into account and thought through for the sake of practicing catastrophe prevention and mitigation.
We also still don't know who Satoshi is or are. The idea that noone would be crazy enough to dump coins or somehow else cause havoc to a currency they themselves created is a worrying belief, because crazy people exist and crazy things happen all the time.
Yes let the conspiracies run wild! nice. Now just imagine someone would create money out of thin air, and then people would actually use it, thus giving it value.... i know, sounds crazy right?
What if "math" was just invented to distract us from the real issues? it is all a big scam...
Satoshi is Bill Gates. He programmed in Windows. Search in Google for the article.
