This article outlines the general whispers that have been happening for a very long time that Satoshi (btc creator) was CIA, but no, it isn’t made up by me personally and it’s pretty credible of a theory with all the other info: www.binance.com/en/square/post/1229087

The planet money piece is very long so I’ll have to check it out later, but the Vice article says nothing of the sort and actually spends time mocking people and saying it’s a conspiracy. So I’m not really sure how that at all supports what you’re saying. It just says CIA is interested in and involved in crypto, which makes sense given how it’s used. It does not say anything at all about them starting it or having a major hand in it.

No, the Vice article fully supports what I’m saying for that point. Look who is quoted:
As I stated, the CIA is fully involved in crypto. The other article is the one that explains why people think Satoshi is CIA.
