We all know that Chinese aren't that far behind in terms of technology. In fact, theirs are advancing at a fast rate. Even though they hold the sufficient technology to crack or generate the same private keys to Satoshi's addresses, it still is a resource-consuming and time-consuming effort to recover those coins

Once again, it's not a matter of "better technology". It doesn't matter how fast the computers they have are. It doesn't matter how many computers they have. They could go 10,000 years into the future, steal all the computers on Earth, and bring them back in time to the beginning of the Universe, then run them nonstop trying to crack a single private key. They could run them while the early galaxies form, run them while our star is born, while the Earth congeals, while life begins, and until they again reach today. They would fail.

Brute force will never. Ever. Ever. EVER. crack a 256 bit key. No matter what.

Umm, if someone can zip 10.000 years into the future, then pop up at the dawn of time, I doubt they'Ed have any interest in any encryption key. Just saying!
