The Origin of a Global Conspiracy:

The origins of this theory date back to 1990, when Germany sold Crypto AG, a company specializing in encryption technology, to the CIA. However, the countries using the technology were unaware that they were being spied on by the very people who created their security systems — the United States and Germany. This mass surveillance was more than just intelligence gathering; it was a lucrative business, with the information gathered being sold on the black market. It only stopped in 2018, coinciding with the so-called “Great Crypto Crash.”

Tatsuaki Okamoto is a respected figure in the field of cryptography, whose involvement in the 1996 paper raised questions about the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

The Birth of Bitcoin:

By 2005, the NSA had all the code needed to create a cryptocurrency. However, it had no foundation and no name. At this time, leaks revealed that the NSA and the Pentagon were investing heavily in supercomputers and extensive databases in Utah and Maryland. This was more than enough to support a blockchain network like Bitcoin. As for the name, the pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto” was chosen.

In 2008, an individual or group using the name Satoshi Nakamoto published “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.” The paper outlined a decentralized digital currency based on blockchain technology, designed to operate without a central authority. The timing of the publication was notable—it came just as the world was reeling from the 2008 financial crisis, a period of significant instability and uncertainty. In January 2009, Bitcoin officially launched, marking the beginning of what many saw as a revolutionary new financial system.
