BROCK PIERCE
Bitcoin is a tool, like a knife, a murderer and a cook can both use it.
Epstein emails reveal that cryptocurrency entrepreneur Brock Pierce, co-founder of stablecoin issuer Tether, discussed #Bitcoin with former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers at Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse.
According to the emails, Pierce described himself as “the most active investor in Bitcoin,” while Summers expressed cautious interest, noting reputational risks from the market’s volatility.

Gavin Andresen goes to work at #MIT Digital Currency initiative in April of 2015 and Epstein visits again in 2015.
Let’s not forget Brock Pierce attends “Mindshift” an event hosted by Epstein at Epstein Island in 2011.
By 2014 Selkis was already friends with Brock because he was one who voted for him for the Bitcoin Foundation Board in 2014. Brock was probably also the “good friend” who alerted Selkis of MtGox imminent collapse which gave Selkis his claim to fame being the first to report it
Brock Pierce was personally invited and attended Epstein’s Mindshift Conference on his island in 2011 before he founded Tether in 2014. Piece was an unlikely attendee with a group that included a NASA computer engineer, an MIT professor of electrical engineering and a Nobel laureate in theoretical physics.
MIT Professor, Al Seckel, co-organized the Mindshift conference which began in 2009. Seckel happened to be life partner of Isabel Maxwell, which was Ghislaine Maxwell’s sister. Her father was Mossad spy Robert Maxwell who just so happened to buy the New York Daily News and Goldman Sachs helped him do that.
Gary Gensler was Head of the Goldman Sachs Media Mergers & Acquisitions department in NY from 1984-end of 1991. Gensler would later go on to teach Blockchain at MIT before become Chairman of the SEC.

Apple TV Brock Pierce and the “An Open Secret” Documentary Apple TVAn Open Secret (2014) — A fantastic, hard to watch documentary about pedophilia. sexual abuse in the entertainment industry
“An Open Secret” is a 2014 American documentary film directed by Amy J. Berg that exposes allegations of child sexual abuse within the film industry in California.
The Film investigates child sexual abuse in Hollywood, focusing on the exploitation of young male actors by industry figures. Brock Pierce, a former child actor (known for roles in *The Mighty Ducks* films and *First Kid*), is prominently featured in archival footage as a co-founder of Digital Entertainment Network (DEN), an early 1990s internet streaming company. The film alleges that DEN’s operations served as a front for grooming and abusing underage boys, with parties at the company’s Encino, California mansion involving drugs, alcohol, and sexual assault. Pierce held a minor ownership stake (about 1%) and served as executive vice president at age 18, earning $250,000 annually. He has denied direct involvement in abuse, stating he was underage (16–17) during much of the period and chose the “wrong business partner” in DEN co-founder Marc Collins-Rector.
The documentary highlights how DEN attracted high-profile investors and guests, including director Bryan Singer (an investor who has faced separate abuse allegations) and media mogul David Geffen. Victims interviewed describe being lured with promises of acting roles, then drugged (e.g., with alcohol and prescription meds) and assaulted at these events. Pierce is not accused of abuse in the film but is portrayed as part of the enabling environment, with one lawsuit claiming he participated in assaults alongside Collins-Rector and co-founder Chad Shackley. No criminal charges were ever filed against Pierce, and civil suits against him were dropped after settlements (e.g., a $21,600 payment to one plaintiff’s lawyer). Pierce has maintained his innocence, emphasizing his youth and lack of charges.
The Roommate and Flight from the U.S.
Your reference to the “roommate” aligns with Chad Shackley, Pierce’s co-founder and housemate at the DEN mansion. Shackley was Collins-Rector’s boyfriend (starting when Shackley was 15 and Collins-Rector 31) and lived with both men during the alleged abuses. In 2000, a New Jersey federal grand jury indicted Collins-Rector on charges of transporting minors across state lines for sex. Rather than face arrest, Collins-Rector, Shackley, and Pierce fled the U.S. to a luxury villa in Marbella, Spain—described by tabloids as a haven for fugitives. They were arrested there in May 2002 during an Interpol raid, which uncovered guns, machetes, jewels, and child pornography. Shackley and Pierce were detained briefly (about a month) but released without charges, as the warrant targeted Collins-Rector. The trio was extradited to the U.S.; Collins-Rector pleaded guilty in 2003, serving 21 months in prison and registering as a sex offender. Shackley now runs a computer shop in Florida, per reports, and has stayed out of the public eye.
Context on the Parties and Celebrities
The DEN mansion parties, funded by $75 million in venture capital (from firms like Microsoft and Dell), were extravagant events drawing Hollywood elites. Attendees included celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio and Bryan Singer, though not all are implicated in wrongdoing. Allegations center on Collins-Rector and associates providing underage boys (recruited as aspiring actors) with drugs and alcohol to facilitate assaults—claims echoed in civil lawsuits from 1999–2002 totaling $4.5 million in judgments (mostly unpaid). One victim, Alexander Burton, alleged being drugged and assaulted by all three founders. These events contributed to DEN’s collapse: its planned IPO was canceled amid the scandal, and the company folded.
