We’re surrounded by all sorts of mysteries that are yet to be solved but, the biggest one yet is how the cryptocurrency king, Bitcoin, was created and why. Keeping that in mind, there have been various conspiracy theories regarding the digital currency on the internet. Here are some of the ones that seem more legitimate than others.

JPMORGAN WAS THE REASON BEHIND THE MT. GOX COLLAPSE

It’s a fact that organizations such as JPMorgan don’t see much profit in bitcoin but, they’re all in for the technology that lies behind it. Mt. Gox drove bitcoin’s value to higher limits, while JP Morgan composed a price crash by selling over 8000 coins to drive the price back down.

Parallelly, JPMorgan was funding anti-bitcoin articles teamed up with mainstream media firms. To tell you the truth, all these concepts, do sound quite reasonable, however, it seems unreal to think that such an institution would intentionally crash the bitcoin price.

SATOSHI NAKAMOTO SAID TO BE AN AI

Has it ever occurred to you that Satoshi Nakamoto could be an artificial intelligence? Well, considering that the world has been on several hunts as to find out the persona behind the pseudonym that now one can actually think that it might be an AI created by a hidden government. While this theory does seem a little far off, it spurs up some really exciting discussions.

CHINA INVENTED BITCOIN

Many seem to believe that the Chinese created Bitcoin as to wipe out their dependence on the US dollar. While it is a fact that China has been working with Russia and others to create a payment system, it is doubtful they would create bitcoin to substitute the US Dollar.

BITCOIN IS AN NSA PROJECT

This is a theory that has been quite popular around the web that how bitcoin was created as an experiment by the NSA. Claiming that Satoshi Nakamoto is actually a pseudonym behind the top-secret cryptocurrency project. Also, it is said that the NSA has access to the SHA-256 algorithm, which makes bitcoin a lot less secure than what it’s assumed to be.

MAJORE GOVERNMENTS PARTAKE IN BITCOINS “ARMS” RACE

In 2013, a conspiracy theory had risen from the Bitcointalk forums. A user came up with the concept that major governments like US and China were buying bitcoins in bulk for themselves. Let’s not forget both these governments had first opposed the cryptocurrency when it emerged, which makes this theory quite believable.
