"Bitcoin is a project of American intelligence, created to quickly finance the activities of American, British and Canadian intelligence in different countries," - the presentation prepared for Ms. Kasperskaya's lecture at the opening ceremony of the ITMO University training center in St. Petersburg asserts.

According to Ms. Kasperskaya, Bitcoin is a kind of "dollar 2.0" and its author, known under the alias Satoshi Nakamoto - is in fact a group of American cryptosystem designers.

The presentation also noted that smartphones can be "spy" devices that monitor their owners, Sputnik writes.
