I see that pointbiz has that donation address since at least September 2011,

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-bitaddressorg-safe-javascript-bitcoin-addressprivate-key-43496

He hasn't spent any btc since. That surprises me
Yeah probably he also mined back then or something like that so the donation is perhaps kind of a side thing ? We can also think that he has so many BTC's that he doesn't even remember checking his donation address  Grin

It seems the owner of that address is pointbiz who developed bitaddress.org and last active here on the forum is "July 02, 2018, 09:50:39 PM".

His announcement thread about this project "[ANN] bitaddress.org Safe JavaScript Bitcoin address/private key"

I believe that this is not the only wallet he had and I'm sure he already sold some of bitcoin.

And take note he is still active on Github look at this recent post from another github https://github.com/janoside/btc-rpc-explorer/issues/286
This kind of activity really allows us to see that this guy must be a good guy (ah funny saying). I mean he could be living the life that he's always dreamed off (I do believe he had other reserves of BTC somewhere) and yet he's still humble to the point of helping out other people and actually contributing to projects. Good for him and for us!

The fact that he still holds the same address doesn't really it in the whole theory of him losing his private key (at least for me). Perhaps he's using that wallet to just funds for when whenever he deems fit use in order to improve the project or something like that (and even that thought doesn't make much sense).

If he lost the private keys, he can probably change the donation bitcoin address on the bitaddress website anytime.
As what @BitMaxz said, he/she still active on Github. But the repository of Bitaddress is still no changes or other commits since 2016.
The owner got diamond hands Cool, HODLER  Cool.

Even if he can change the address, that would be if he still has access to the the website itself. Or he simply think that the top hasn't been reached yet and still looking for a good exit point for those coins.  It should definitely be a painful experience if it turns out that truly he lost the private key.

It's probably a paper wallet Wink

And it's probably he lost the private key,  Smiley

This looks like it's the case with it.

Remember he created it back in 2011 back then BTC was cheap. I think it was as low as $2 or $3 a coin. He could be sitting on a pile of BTC.

Mining was also generating a lot of coins for the hardware that you could get at the time (not necessarily profit in terms of dollars) there are a lot of old timers out there that are sitting on 100s if not 1000s of coins. Selling as needed.

But you don't know those addresses or hear about them, because most people are not going to come here and talk about it.

This is the donation address for https://www.bitaddress.org/

He has had inputs (donations), but no output so far, and at the moment he has 36.42374799 BTC  Shocked, this is a very large amount for the owner of the page not to take out the BTC and live rich.

What will happen? Did the owner of the page forget the private key, would something have happened to him or what?  Shocked
