The better for us. Less bitcoin in circulation means their value increases due to high demand and high scarcity. Right?

For all we know the guy might be dead and the coins will never surface.

Please show source of Satoshi owning a 6th of all bitcoins?
Who mined coins in 2009? Satoshi and, at most, some other people, note how difficulty was stuck at 1 for like a year or so, this means only one or so cpu were mining. 
The coins are still there , very few of the first coins ever moved from their blocks.
What more proof you want?
They indeed won't give a flying f about the crowd getting fucked, problem is they fuck themselves. The volume is too big to sell which means the price they will be getting for their bitcoins will be extremely low. The demand is too slow for these volumes. As for the $1000,- dollar barrier, part of me believes in the dumping scenario, but on the other hand, people that have huge amounts of BTc now also had it when it became $10, when it became $100, $500, etc.
Satoshi owns around 1 sixth or seventh of all coins
Seriously? With this amount he is almost a $$ billionaire. :OAnd to the topic, if this is the true, that just a handful ppl hold 60 or 70% of the total amount, it's dangerous and explain, why the price raise up so stable. Maybe this handful ppl just want to catch 1000$ and bam...the bubble is bursting.
Slim chance. If half of all bitcoins get dumped on the market at $1000,- prices will fall so quick that everybody gets fucked.

Please show source of Satoshi owning a 6th of all bitcoins? If this is true, that can be the end to bitcoin as we know it. Someone owning that many can kill the whole thing if the word gets out.

Problem is that it is too much influence on price of bitcoin by the holder of this amount if it is true. More and more messages about people holding vast amount of bitcoin surface, giving a lot of power to a small amount of people.
What will the FBI do with the seized bitcoins by the way? Any speculations?

DPR took a large risk in getting that amount of bitcoin. and even if he does have vast wealth, would you trade places with him?
Since he has so much Bitcoin, maybe he can bribe the US government with it 
haha, I came across another wallet of his. (I believe) is any how. One wallet i found, came from one of his others, made a transaction this past week and i don't think it is the FBI because they didn't sweep they wallet. Still has around 50k in it.

You're right, 400K is an estimate but from what I've read, the FBI have seized the company bitcoins but not his PERSONAL funds, of which there is an estimated 400K. And wow, at the current price that's over £200M
they're in hands of u.s gov now
nNot yet. They have the encrypted wallet, but not the passcode. Maybe they never will, because I'm not convinced that this guy is DPR at all. He certainly is at least an employee, but then even he won't have access to the company funds.
The FBI has a lot of them, or maybe all of them - 400K is just an estimate, he may have just had 144K left. The FBI moved 144,336 of them to here:

That is way to much money just to keep in a wallet no one knows about
