Bitcoin was carefully designed for this outcome by some very astute strategists. Appears to be the work of a black budget think tank.

Really, what other possible conclusions are there?

None. If you have a holistic nexus of data that I have collected over the past several years.

But everyone is free to have their own theory.

Do I have a confirmation bias? Surely do. Nevertheless if any one can present an argument which doesn't make a mockery of Occam's Razor, I will listen. All I've heard is naive theory of a lone man doing this, covering all his tracks like a covert agent yet not being one. A brilliant lone cryptography researcher whom no one ever heard of, never published anything before, who managed to obfuscate his activity from all his family and friends.

And "he" (Satoshi Inc) predicted all the ill effects and was promoting them, e.g. he expected ASICs and corporations to take control of mining.
