Whatever Satoshi has mined is lost for ever. These coins have never been moved, and I think that Satoshi has lost the private keys of all these wallets. So the real number may be somewhere around BTC2,000,000.
it blows my mind how satoshi may have lost the private keys to 20.000 addresses?? thats what i heard he had : 20.000 with 50 coins each. did his house catch on fire? did he really lose ALL of his private keys? Did he die? or he is not moving the coins for a reason (or many)? a big mistery
being the founder of bitcointalk (so it seems) he could come back here once and shed a light LOL
Satoshi wherever you are show that you will withdraw from at least 1 address
And you do realize that this topic is 10 months old? I don't even get how you got here...
Feel free to farm your posts, but please do it in Spam Mega-Threads, not here... It's annoying to see these topics at the top, though they've been dead for almost a year.
Is this a locked topic? does it really matter that this thread is 10 months old? isn't this issue /subject still valid? even more now, due to the interest in BTC widespreading worldwide..... now do you want to know how i stumbled upon this post? by making a google search on lost(or unspent) coins. being a member of this forum i felt like leaving a reply...
