Professor Jiang (Xueqin Jiang)a Chinese teacher in Canada who became a political expert, said publicly that Bitcoin is a CIA project.
Already known for his “Predictive History” and bold predictions about the decline of Western hegemony, Jiang’s latest stance on Bitcoin is raising doubts about the history of the digital economy. While many see $BTC$ as a bulwark against fiat, Jiang argues that it could be a powerful tool for the very empire he predicts will soon fall.
Who is Professor Jiang?
Professor Jiang Xueqin gained worldwide recognition through his YouTube channel, Predictive History. A Yale graduate and former teacher at China’s elite institutions such as the Affiliated High School of Peking University, Jiang has transformed into a “national spokesman” for the digital age.
He gained a lot of attention in 2024 and 2025 because of his accurate predictions about Middle East conflicts. In particular, his claims that the United States will find itself vulnerable to defeat against Iran have made him a flamboyant but watchful figure. Jiang uses a mixture of game theory, the cycle of history, and eschatology saying that the current world order is coming to an end.
Why Do They Call Bitcoin a CIA Project?
In recent news and social media posts, Jiang has focused on the economy. His main point is that Bitcoin’s anonymity and global reach favor US intelligence agencies, especially businesses. CIA.
“Bitcoin is not an exit from the system; it is a gateway into it,” Jiang said in a recent comment.
The “Intelligence Control” Debate
Jiang’s theory rests on several contradictory pillars:
- Technical Basics: They point to the SHA-256 algorithm (developed by the NSA) as a “fingerprint” of government involvement.
- Controlled Resistance: He points out that by allowing “criminal money” to flourish, the US could control a large exodus from rival countries such as China and Russia.
- Liquidity for Black Ops: Jiang acknowledges that the crypto market provides a dark place to invest without congressional oversight.
While these claims lack hard evidence and are often dismissed by the $Bitcoin community as “tinfoil hat” rhetoric, Jiang’s reputation for geopolitical predictions has given his followers a sigh of relief.
Consolidation of US-Iran Conflicts
Jiang’s skepticism about Bitcoin is largely linked to his perspective The US-Iran war. He predicts that if the US dollar faces a crisis of confidence due to the escalation in the Middle East, “CIA-backed” Bitcoin will be pushed as a temporary lifeboat to maintain American influence in the movement of capital around the world when the greenback fails.
According to Jiang, the US “empire” is killing itself strategically because of its involvement in Iran. He argues that the loss of the dispute will mark the end of the “Pax Americana,” and that assets like Bitcoin are part of a global “Secret History” that seeks to drive the transition to a new, perhaps more regulated, digital age.
Geopolitical Fact or Fiction?
Professor Jiang represents a growing trend of “anti-system” intellectuals who see every aspect of modern life through the lens of power struggle. While his claims about Bitcoin being a CIA project are consistent with old urban legends (such as the “Satoshi is a group of NSA agents”) theory, they remain largely speculative.
