"The elite would never allow..."
As many red-pilled/black-pilled people often do, OP assumes government / "the powerful" have near-unlimited power, which is absolutely false. If "they" can't stop movies from being pirated (much less certain other content which is actually abominable), how do you expect them to stop Bitcoin?
Besides which, even if the NSA did create Bitcoin (which I give about a 0.0001% chance; I don't think they did, but obviously we can't prove it), I don't care. My node still relays blocks, and there are miners all over the world willing to include my transaction in the next block if I pay a high enough fee. Good luck trying to stop me.
If the NSA *did* create Bitcoin and they *were* trying to create something they could control, then they really screwed up bad, because they can't control it. And worse, we now have a valid alternative to CBDCs, which we were heading towards without Bitcoin, so rather than helping push us towards CBDCs, they would have saved us from them. 😂
