Okay just incase the story is true, do we need to worry? Who will continue, or the new owner(s) of Bitcoin? I believe everything is well documented , source codes are kept properly.
Alright already.. you've convinced me.. that one of the main Satoshi players is dead that is

I haven't done much research in Finney. Perhaps I should.
