Yes, but he he/she/they will be spending them on goods or services, not fiat.

This is just another speculation thread. No one will know if he will spend or not, not even he himself knows if he is going to spend his btc (assuming he still has the keys to them).

I don't get it, you just linked to random transactions. How can you link these to satoshi?

Im pretty certain he uses them. If I was a super anonymous figure that had to remain anonymous for security reasons I would avoid banks and fiat as much as possible, he probably has enough Bitcoins to never need to work again so why not buy anonymous thanks to them.

Satoshi cashing out some Bitcoins!!!

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/probably-satoshi-cashing-out-some-bitcoins-712502

The only people I know for sure mining a significant number of bitcoins blocks in the first three weeks were Satoshi and Hal Finney. Is it common knowledge by now that we know who the first early miners were?
I ask because someone who mined blocks between January 29 and February 7, 2009 has been cashing them out over the past nine months. I'm curious how large the list of likely suspects is.
** EDIT ** I have an article pending on 'Let's Talk Bitcoin' which includes all of the raw data. However, here is just one example of what I'm referring to.

Mined January 30, 2009 then February 4, 2009, then February 6, 2009, then February 7, 2009.
For those who do not know, the very first bitcoin block ever was mined on January 3, 2009
https://blockchain.info/block/000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f
The second one wasn't mined until 6 days later on January 9, 2009:
https://blockchain.info/block/00000000839a8e6886ab5951d76f411475428afc90947ee320161bbf18eb6048
So, any blocks from January 30th are absurdly early in this history of the blockchain and only a handful of people could be responsible for this!
These begin with block #2400!!
All spent/transferred within minutes on February 6, 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And these aren't the only very, very, very, early bitcoin blocks which have been redeemed. There have been a series of them, which is included in the data when the article gets published.


So now we know that the million Bitcoin is not lost and the guy still have control of the wallet, the next thing we need to know is if he will be selling some of that million and how, when and to where otherwise to whom (we might know who is satoshi at the end). 

i guess he saw the end of bitcoin bubble is very close now, last chance to sell better than nothing

Well, this is really very interesting info, thank you for sharing.
I hope that this is not sight that Satoshi think that now is time to sell Bitcoin and maybe create something new.
If this info is 100 % correct than answer to the topic question is yes.

Yes "seriouscoin" this attempt at FUD was really lame since the "news" is from Feb.
Is "falllling" failing at whatever he/she is trying to do?

I don't think he is going to use them. The system is not anonymous enough and he has too many to use a mixer effectively.

Maybe if Tor wasn't under suspicion of being compromised he could use his coins to run an anonymous mixer (coins come in, get mixed around with his) providing him with some anonymity but that also would draw legal attention for laundering.

I think it will be his next of kin that ultimately benefit.

it's not like he has to mix them all. he can just cash out a million or two. but i don't know if it's going to happen either way. safest way to go about is maybe donate the coins to a charitable organization.. he can't be caught doing that.

Cashing out some has too much chance of a DoX resulting in criminal targeting. e.g. someone kidnaps a niece for bitcoin ransom.

Remember that if he is in the US any sizeable withdrawal requires reporting to government by whatever exchange is used.
he could put his bitcoins through a mixer (or several) and do so in small enough amounts that it would be difficult to trace the new bitcoin to him being "satochi"

I think at some point those coins will move. I can't see sitting on that much potential wealth and never moving it. I think if and when they do move it would cause a bit of a panic. If they never move then the owner is a better man then I.


Back in the old days, those coins are pretty worthless and most people probably don't even care if they lose it all. The owners of most of the top wallets with no activity probably already lose the private key.

I think it would be incredible if they never move it really shows that satoshi actually cared about the project and removes the possibility of people calling it out as a scam for the creator to earn a quick buck.

At some point, those coins will be spent/moved. But I don't think that will be for a long long time.
