Yes, in a similar fashion - I've read crazy things about Satoshi etc., it's hard to discern the truth. My gut tells me it's a group of a highly anonymous, coordinated programmers that perhaps used/supplemented forms of rudimentary AI to create it.
Idk - but I can't get behind the explanation that the Government created it.. what purpose would that serve? It's decentralized, they lose influence/power? But again, who really knows?
As for the Simulation theory, it seems feasible, but I hope Musk and his fanboys aren't just promoting it for publicity because Tesla will be strapped for cash in 2018. If you are further interested, I would read some of Nick Bostrom's work.
Regardless, exciting times and happy soon to be New Year, maybe we'll get some more answers.
What I appreciate about Simulation Theory is that it doesn’t change anything.
Whether we’re in a sim or not, why would that alter the way you live your life?
I haven’t heard the theory that it was a government entity, can you direct me to a website, tweet, or post that says that’s a possibility?
Conspiracy theories abound when there’s an unknown piece of the puzzle - I’ve read a lot of articles concerning Nakamoto’s identity and all I’ve gained from it is that far more skilled writers and journalists than myself have been duped by wannabes. I can only imagine how many staff writers at the NYT, WSJ, and WikiLeaks are trying to figure it out.
