I they cannot control Bitcoin or crypto in general, they kill it's creator and replace them with a fraud operating with the US govt.
Now he ( the us govt) can claim copyrights of crypto and blockchain technology.
What implications would this have? Collaboration with the US govt, higher transaction fees ? Disowning of BTC, blockchain copyright, alt coins banning?
This is a bigger conspiracy theory than the reality we have in our hands, for the US government to replace someone who is Australian and a person who migrated to England in order to stay away from the authorities and you think the US government hired him to claim the copyrights, yes i have seen many conspiracy theories in the past, but your one made me laugh. If he filed the application through fraud he will be exposed no doubt about it.
