Unraveling the $13 Billion Bitcoin Conundrum: A Global Controversy

A significant controversy surrounds a $13 billion bitcoin theft, prompting international intrigue. China’s National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center (CVERC) has accused the U.S. government of involvement, alleging it acquired these bitcoins under suspicious circumstances in 2020. These allegations stem from claims that the bitcoins belonged to LuBian, a Chinese mining pool, which was allegedly pilfered. The mystery intensifies as nearly four years’ worth of 127,271 bitcoins remained dormant until mid-2024, when they were reportedly transferred to wallets linked to U.S. government agencies.
