Let's for one minute say that what you're saying is correct, that Satoshi was not a person but a group of people and it is a government project, what did they expect to achieve with it?

Think about the sort of people Bitcoin attracts: Anti-government anarchists, tax cheat, drug users, the pathologically foolish, internet criminals... Like Pooh Bear to a Honeypot...
Ehh?  Yeah, now you're getting it...
Cheesy

You mean they created this currency, so that criminals would use it because of it anonymity and other advantages and when they do, they'll get caught? So, why haven't they done it already, people are scamming left and right, some hackers were also extorting people with that virus (if you remember) that encrypted all the files, even the celebrity fappening was sold for bitcoins and I am sure there have been other crimes where criminals used bitcoins but I don't remember seeing anyone getting arrested. Sure some exchange guys did but they're not the hardcore criminals government is after.
