No need to worry, Pmalek.  I will repost the message below.

I agree, if it was a Secret Agency member then they were probably some body with intentions similar to Snowden.  If it was a GROUP who was part of a Secret Agency then I would be more skeptical about the intentions.

However I really doubt there was any malicious intention behind this experiment, because after all Bitcoin was initially just an experiment.  If they intended to do any thing malicious then they very likely failed their scopes by downplaying how big Bitcoin could grow with the right community.  Like I said though.  Very unlikely.  Look at pretty much any well known and deep rooted person like politicians or institutions and how they talk about Bitcoin.  They all have no clue what this is all about, even one decade and a half later.  If they are pretending, they need an Oscar award.

Well.  Since there is no evidence for any thing about Satoshi other than that he was very likely an English man.  There are many things to speculate on and about.

I sometimes wonder whether Satoshi was the pseudonym for one single person or for a group of people.  Or maybe he was one person who initiated what we know today as Bitcoin but was helped for the most part by many programmers who wanted to build this kind of payment system.

Then you can also speculate on the subject more conspiracy ish.  What if Satoshi and Bitcoin were experiment project code names and we were the test subjects.  What if we still are.  If there is one thing I am almost entirely sure about, it is that if Satoshi is just one person then they are a VERY intelligent person.  It is pretty hard to invent all of this all on your own with no external help.  If they are a group then I rather not know who they are and live my life believing they wanted our best, not our worst.

I do not know what to believe.  Due to how complex Bitcoin is and how well made it was from the start I tend to think it is NOT a single person.  If it is, then it is likely they were part of a Three Letter Agency and decided to part ways and give us an option to Freedom knowing what was coming for all of us and for our Privacy.

Best answer is that I am sincerely confused.  He may be an agent of NSA.  It may be NSA themselves.  Or maybe not.

After all.  We are all Satoshi, right!
