Original Note:
Bitcoin was not create exactly by the CIA/NSA, and there's no actual evidence they directly did. But it's similar to a 1996 written paper on how to mint electric cash using sha-2 that the NSA did create, but the sha-256 bitcoin mint has some changes to make it different. https://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/classes/6.805/articles/money/nsamint/nsamint.htm https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf
