#ETH Early Attention and Discussion 1
Epstein has shown a strong interest in Bitcoin since its inception in 2011, engaging in email discussions with several tech giants about its nature, including in-depth exchanges with PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and former Microsoft executive Boris Nikolic.
Indirect Investment and Funding 1
He indirectly invested in Bitcoin infrastructure company Blockstream's seed round ($500,000) through MIT Laboratory's funds and donated $850,000 to support MIT's digital currency initiatives1. These funds helped hire Bitcoin core developers1.
Islamic Digital Currency Concept 1
In 2016, Epstein proposed creating a digital currency compliant with Islamic law, aiming to address religious compliance issues in traditional cryptocurrencies1.
Association with Bitcoin Core Developers 1
There is evidence suggesting Epstein may have had contact with the Bitcoin founding team, even claiming to have "communicated with the Bitcoin creator"1. However, it should be noted that there is no direct evidence he has contacted Satoshi Nakamoto himself.
Summary: Epstein was an early key participant in Bitcoin, influencing the industry through financial support and conceptual discussions, but he did not directly control Bitcoin technology or core development1. His connections are more at the investment and ideological levels rather than technical control.
