Ok, if he said this and this women isn't lying or misquoting...: "I am no longer involved in that and I cannot discuss it," he says, dismissing all further queries with a swat of his left hand. "It's been turned over to other people. They are in charge of it now. I no longer have any connection."... then its him.
Why is there much of an argument, here. Not everything is a conspiracy to the third degree.
This quote is an admission of involvement, so I think that's the end of the story until something happens... He knew all along that eventually his identify would be discovered, and I seriously doubt he is in physical possession of his coins. I doubt anyone will ever find them. They're most likely distributed securely. He's worked at a very high level, for very highly sophisticated organizations. There's every reason to believe he's thought this eventuality through, and has contingency plans in place. Wouldn't you?
edit: How long before he hits the message boards, again?
