The only thing that weirds me out about this is that it is pretty much clear that such large amounts of BTC are very likely to have been obtained through not legal methods. And most people know. And no one cares, he has bought his Lamborghini with his questionably earned money and that's it. Very very unlikely that he bought all this Bitcoins. I dunno, it's just kinda bizarre to me.

He's an old timer. The very fact that he was willing to publicly use such a large sum strongly indicates that they were legally acquired, either by mining when it was easy, or buying when they were cheap. Even in early 2012, 200 BTC was only $1000.

He's been around for ages and got in early, didn't sell his coins, played it really clever, that's all. Implying he is a crook, really ...
