UCLA Professor of Finance, Bhagwan Chowdhry can accept the award on behave of Satoshi Nakamoto and the reward can be donated to a charity if it isn't claimed. There should be a relevant charity linked to the bitcoin industry, and otherwise War Child or the Red Cross are always good candidates.
if only the bitcoin foundation had more credibility in the community then the prize could've gone to them.

Plus Nobel Committee won't have to waste money prize - since there is very slim chance that Satoshi is gonna receive Prize himself.
