Founder of worlds second largest cryptocurrency in the world Ethereum claims , The NSA may have helped invent Bitcoin

The founder of second largest cryptocurrency in the world has claimed that US intelligence services may have played a role in the creation of Bitcoin.

Vitalik Buterin, the Russian creator of Ethereum, suggested that the National Security Agency (NSA) could have been involved in the development of the virtual currency. A person or group named Satoshi Nakamoto published a white paper in 2008 that first established the mechanics of Bitcoin. But despite the fact that several people have been identified as the "real" Satoshi, his identity has never been unequivocally demonstrated.

'Satoshi never let anyone know who he was.
"I would not be surprised if he is actually an American who works for the NSA specialized in cryptography, then he got tired of the monetary policies of the government and decided to create Bitcoin." Vitalik Buterin's account answered: "Or the NSA itself decided to create Bitcoin. "Things as big as megacorporations and governments work against themselves all the time, I would not be too surprised if the NSA has anything to do with supporting it at least."

Earlier this year, it was reported that a head of the Russian cybersecurity firm Kaspersky made a similar claim. "Bitcoin is a project of the American intelligence agencies, which was designed to provide quick funds for American, British and Canadian intelligence activities in different countries," he said, according to Sputnik News. '[Technology] is privatized just like the Internet, GPS and TOR. In fact, it's dollar 2.0. Your rate is controlled by the owners of the exchanges. "
