Guys question, there are an couple of addresses from 2010 that holds more than 100,000BTC

What would happen if the owners recovered it's private key now or in the next years and suddenly woke up and moved some of its coins?
What would happen if you buy BTC now, and decide to hold and spend it after 13 years, it is either you lose the keys and the coins, or you provide the private keys after all the years and spend or move the funds. That is what is going to happen to the funds in the addresses you noticed.
