Recently uncovered emails reveal Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the early Bitcoin ecosystem and its investors. Between 2002 and 2017, Epstein donated $850,000 to MIT, supporting the Digital Currency Initiative, which later funded Bitcoin Core developers such as Gavin Andresen. Epstein's interactions included meetings with Tether co-founder Brock Pierce and former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers to discuss Bitcoin. He also consulted Steve Bannon on cryptocurrency taxation and token distribution. Additionally, Amazon records indicate Epstein purchased books on Bitcoin and Ethereum in 2017. These revelations suggest Epstein's involvement with the cryptocurrency community was more extensive than previously understood.
