Do you think there would ever be a time the CIA or some central-authority-agency would in someway sponsor activities that would hurt Bitcoin's image in the world?
What do you think?
America is in control of the worlds currency in the form of US dollars as the universal legal tender. If bitcoin will be adopted by the countries in the world then bitcoin could be the next legal tender leaving the US dollar weak and prone to economic devastation. This could be the fall of the economy of America thus they see it fit to destroy bitcoin using the quantum computers made by the CIA.
The good news is with those quantum computers available to destroy bitcoin it will take several years so I am not worried. I agree though that this latest trend of attacks in forms of ransomware could be very well designed from people working in intelligence agencies, CIA,FBI or NSA. That is an option I would not exclude. However the price of bitcoin is still firm from several days in the 1700-1800 and this is good for the health of bitcoin. These agencies do not like bitcoin but for the moment they are not doing anything massive against it.
