The code is open source.  Anyone capable of reading computer source code can see for themselves that this is not true. That sounds like a lot of racist paranoia to me.  Perhaps you have been listening to QAnon a bit too long?


It's an open source decentralized distributed network.  Anyone anywhere can run a node, and anyone anywhere can run a miner.  Your bitcoins are secured with a set of ECDSA 256 bit private keys.  How exactly will the Chinese government steal anything from me?


Nonsense.  What data?


Bitcoin has existed for 12 years now, and it is still as secure as ever.  What threat are you talking about?

Conspiracy theories have always been used as means for achieving political and economical goals by the power. In the case of the rhetoric you are quoting, it is used for demonization of China and delegitimization of Bitcoin both; two birds, one stone.

I'm not a fan of Chinese government (who might be?) but I don't like the hateful anti-Chinese discourse initially promoted by far right and the infamous Trump. All governments are a threat to Bitcoin's decentralization agenda, China Xi exception, so a majority of miners/pools residing in China is not good for Bitcoin; things are under control right now and a strong checks and balances mechanism is enforced by other parts of the network, but the situation should be addressed technically as well; some people  are working on it, me included, but let's make it crystal clear: there is no conspiracy, it is how the market has evolved.

1. It doesn't matter who invented Bitcoin because in it's current state, it decently decentralized enough to not be easily controlled by a centralized authority.

2. Bitcoins cant be "locked". They can only be lost when a Bitcoin wallet owner gets deceased without handing over access to another person.

3. Bitcoins have been stolen through hackers, the same way money can be stolen in bank accounts and PayPal accounts. And as per usual, they get stolen because of security ignorance and carelessness, not through a red button in China that has "steal bitcoin" written in it.

That's definitely a wrong information, investors are not stupid to make it a billion dollar market if they don't trust bitcoin.
 
It's open source so anyone can audit it, the information you read is just to mislead people and scare them not to invest or trust bitcoin but look at the market now, people are investing, not only that, even the institutional investors are putting their money, so don't think that the system is not secure.

Decentralized and unique, that's what bitcoin is because despite the fact that inventor is anonymous, people still trust it.

Where you had found that news? In a little dig on Google, I have found nothing. When you post something like this you should add at least a reference from where you had heard this news. At least I am not gonna believe in this. How they could steal your money? Are they controlling Bitcoin? Not, it's not possible for a truly decentralized cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. Bitcoin is backed by the worldwide community, not just by China. So it's an unrealistic thought that they have been stealing money. Obviously, that's a piece of fake news if you found it somewhere.

I will not surprise I if discover there is "chitcoin" created by China (Lol).

How they can also create it and try to stop there people from anything around it. This is not true. Bitcoin is decentralized and can't be controlled by any government, is an open source for everyone. Then I see no point in criticizing negatively. This could be a move to put the Chinese on this. Op, you need to provide link to it anyway.

When the going begins to get too good, people starts believing in what ever rubbish that comes there way. Its absurd but not unusual.
Why would you be so concerned over that which isn't affecting you in anyway. What say you that you can transact rather freely and get your money's worth in its equivalent valuable? That's okay to me and the Chinese government had nothing to do with building bitcoin otherwise, they won't have tried banning it in China few years ago neither would we have seen a Chinese Yuan come up.

Follow facts, not rumors!

If the Chinese government created bitcoin in order to steal money from others as you claim then why didn't they sell the 1 million bitcoins that were mined in the early days (2009)?
Bitcoin is decentralized and no government owns it or can control it.

Who are these some? If I were you, I won't even dignify such hollow rumors. You better spend your time, curiosity, and energy on something else.

What I noticed, though, is that Chinese names are getting big in the crypto world. Whatever implication this has in its future is yours and mine to speculate.

Anyway, don't worry about this gossip. Just always keep your Bitcoin under your sole control. Whatever happens, that is yours.

Obviously, this is just some mere and abusive statement to the creator of Bitcoin when you link him to the Chinese. Of course, that's not true, and how are they gonna lock those BTC anyway? Maybe they've seen it not moving for so long since the owner of those coins might be dead or don't want to sell their BTC with the current price. They've just made some false statement here since those things they said are not true. I mean, Those people who bought some BTC and decide to hold it for a long time are not some ordinary people. they made some serious consultation before doing it and if ever such claim is true, you will see these people leaving the crypto industry one after another.
