Raoul Pal, a former executive at Goldman Sachs, has put forth a theory regarding the origin of Bitcoin (BTC).
Massive revelatio0n about Satoshi
In a recent interview with YouTuber Tom Bilyeu, the CEO of Real Vision suggested that Satoshi, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin, could potentially be the US and UK governments.
Pal believes that BTC’s pseudonymous founder may have been a collective of government employees from the US National Security Agency (NSA) and the UK’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), who were assigned to experiment with possible solutions to anticipate future threats to the West’s international monetary supremacy.
The former Goldman Sachs executive said that he actually spoke with a Department of Defense (DoD) official in 2013 or 2014 about such threats.
“They periodically reach out to people like me, thinkers about stuff, who are looking at crises and things like that, because their job is to assess risk. And I was talking to them about it… and he said, ‘We’re worried about debt, we’re worried about the system blowing up.’”
He continued and stated the following:
“I said ‘Yes, obviously. Everybody is.’ Because that’s one of the things they need to game out, what happens if the West loses control of money and debt and everything else.
And I said, ‘Well, I think the answer’s there, and I think it’s Bitcoin.’ And he said, ‘Yeah, tell me more.’ And I said ‘And I think the US government and the UK government invented it.’ Which is the NSA and the GCHQ in the UK, who are the two world centers of cryptography…
And I asked the Department of Defense, they said, ‘Yeah, we’ve considered that too.’”
