One Epstein rumor was enough to make people dump Bitcoin. $BTC
That should scare you more than the rumor itself.
Not because the claim is credible, but because of how quickly conviction disappeared. A decentralized system that has survived bans, crashes, wars, and coordinated attacks was suddenly questioned because of gossip about one person.
The “Epstein was Satoshi” theory falls apart the moment you look at reality.
Bitcoin launched in 2008, with the most intense development happening in 2009 and 2010. During that exact period, Epstein was either incarcerated or under strict state supervision in Florida. Building Bitcoin required obsessive, uninterrupted work. That was not the life he was living.
Years later, after Bitcoin was already global, Epstein was still trying to understand it. In 2014 and again in 2018, he emailed people like Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon asking basic questions about crypto. Regulation, taxes, distribution. Creators do not ask for beginner explanations of systems they designed.
Then there is the MIT narrative people keep recycling. Yes, Epstein donated to the MIT Media Lab. No, there is no evidence that his money funded Bitcoin development or the Digital Currency Initiative. The DCI was funded later by established tech investors after the Bitcoin Foundation collapsed. Epstein was buying proximity to influence, not maintaining an open-source protocol.
The rest of the theory is just pattern-matching. He met early Bitcoin figures. He appeared in contact books. He showed up near powerful names. Presence is not authorship.
Here is the part that actually matters.
Even if Bitcoin had been created by the worst person imaginable, nothing about the system would change. Bitcoin is open-source, decentralized, and permissionless. It does not care about identity, borders, politics, or morality. No individual controls it. No founder defines it.
Bitcoin exists to protect people from monetary debasement and to allow free ownership and exchange of value.
So if an Epstein rumor was enough to make someone sell their BTC, they were never holding Bitcoin.
They were holding a story.
And stories do not survive pressure.
