Natalya Kaspersky hævder at Bitcoin blev skabt for at yde financiering af aktiviteter af amerikanske og britiske efterretningsvæsner rundt omkring i verden. Eksperten kaldte cryptovalutaen for "dollar 2.0."

Bitcoin cryptovalutaen blev udviklet af "amerikanske efterretningsvæsner," sagde Natalya Kaspersky, CEO af InfoWatch gruppen af firmaer og specialist i cyber sikkerhedssystemer, ved sin præsentation ved ITMO Universitetet i St. Petersburg.

Kaspersky gav en tale om informationskrige og digital suverænitet. Billeder af hendes præsention som havde titlen "Modern technologies - the basis for information and cyber-wars," er blevet udgivet på sociale medier.

"Bitcoin is a project of American intelligence agencies, which was designed to provide quick funding for US, British and Canadian intelligence activities in different countries. [The technology] is 'privatized,' just like the Internet, GPS and TOR. In fact, it is dollar 2.0. Its rate is controlled by the owners of exchanges," one of the slides read.

She also claimed that Satoshi Nakamoto (the pseudonym used by its founder or founders) is the name for a group of American cryptographers.

The presentation also claimed that a smartphone cannot be considered as a personal gadget.

A smartphone "is a remotely controlled device designed for entertainment, work and at the same time for spying on its owner," according to Kaspersky, who is also the co-founder of Kaspersky Lab.
