👻 Beijing lecturer Jiang Xueqin stated that the CIA or DARPA could have been behind the creation of Bitcoin — according to him, the development of Bitcoin required too many resources, cryptography, and years of work to be the work of one person, and the very fact that the technology was released for free and its author disappeared, more closely resembles a state experiment than an ordinary IT project.

He also claims that blockchain could have emerged in the same environment as the internet or GPS, and Satoshi Nakamoto's anonymity only strengthens suspicions.

However, most experts consider the theory dubious: the Bitcoin network operates on tens of thousands of independent nodes around the world, and its code has been developing openly and publicly for 17 years.
