This is one of the best conspiracies I've ever heard...

  It does provide an explanation as to why Satoshi’s wallets have gone untouched (besides him being dead). $70B ain’t that much compared to a $5T market cap.

  "Conspiracy" requires an unlawful or wrongful purpose. Please assume that the op was run from a jurisdiction where using a pseudonym on the internet was not illegal, and various sorts of influencer and meme marketing were well-accepted practices. Really, compared to an animated tiger telling kids that sugar-laden Frosted Flakes(tm) are "Great!", Task Peppermint was positively benevolent.

    Do you really believe it?

      In the True Conspiracy Theorist sense of Believe? No. It's an obvious Follow The Money theory, with Nvidia being particularly topical, a few "how might a rational business exec do this?" details, and Task Peppermint thrown on as an amusement. I could say something similar with (say) Britain's GCHQ as the mastermind - though their motives would be less clear.
