The likelihood that the government directly or indirectly created Bitcoin is rather high. It doesn't necessarily devalue its value proposition, but it should make us more curious about its systemic origins. Do not make the mistake that governments care stupid (they nay seem so), but they exactly are where they are because they know how to steer the ship.

Usually the people who think 'governments' are stupid think the people they see on TV make the decisions (e.g. Elon Musk, Trump, AOC, Kamala, etc.). The deepest technical minds (the real outliers) they find in universities all over the world remain inside state/para-state labs and defense contractors. They don't give interviews on TV to show people how smart they are ๐Ÿ˜‚ That's the whole point - to pretend the government is incompetent.
