American journalist Tucker Carlson claims that the CIA is behind the creation of Bitcoin and warns that it is a project of a hidden elite controlling the economy.

But the truth is that Bitcoin is an open-source and decentralized project, owned by no one and whose code anyone can review.

The encryption algorithm (SHA-256) it was built on was part of old government research, but it has been public and open for decades.

Even if the origin of some technologies is governmental, Bitcoin today is transparent, managed by a global community of miners and developers.

The only concern is the amount of unknown "Satoshi," but there is no evidence that any entity controls it.
