there must be early investors who haven't yet moved their coins since they receive them. there could be a few who lost their private key too hence the reason why their coins are left untouched. lucky are the ones who truly believe in BTC from the beginning and then still have kept his private keys. the ones that are not seriously taking BTC for its price during its time was just $0.08, probably just thought its a casino coin that will disappear eventually. but it didn't. having just 10BTC today could save you from this doomsday lockdown.

A lot people does. They are waiting for Monero Bitcoin atomic swaps to kick in at the end of this year. It is gonna be a interesting times to see all those old wallets come to life.
A lot of people I assume is going to be getting all their investment profits without the worry of being taxed. The prices will surely plummet when this happens, and I am going to be saving some fiat because that will be a golden opportunity to buy more bitcoin.

For me it is impossible, but I also don't know this is a fact that still holds bitcoin until now.

Because bitcoin has experienced several fantastic increases so I'm sure those who hold it will be tempted to sell it.

But if anyone still holds it today, be sure to be a very strong person in any situation in the cryptocurrency market.

It's a long waiting game, it's either someone lost and found his wallet after long years. There are cases like this. I remember being active in faucets way back 2012 and I even forgot what faucets and which wallet I have used before, it could've reached a decent amount of money in dollars now. Some are really patient to hold it for several years, and I think that long patience is really worth it.

is there someone holding  bitcoin from early 2010   when the price is around 0.01 and still not selling today?    just wondering?

One of this is the creator Satoshi Nakamoto, no one are claiming and posting their wallets that they are one of the pioneer, the temptation to sell at 1000% profit is very high, if there are people besides Nakamoto who is still part of the early holders, it's either they forgot they have it, or forgot their keys or loss it.

Of course there are people who are still holding them. This website shows top Bitcoin addresses that have been dormant for at least 5 years. This includes addresses from 2010. Obviously, It's hard to distinguish the addresses whose owners could have lost access to those that are still accessible but among them, I believe there are people who are still faithfully holding their coins.

With bitcoin being a very big thing today, one may opt to ensure his/her safety first. So there's a high possibility that no one will publicly declare that they were pioneer holders out of their concern for their privacy. And I don't really see the point of telling people that you are a pioneer holder anyway so there's that.

I'm not like pioneer but I have been holding some bitcoins since 2017, although there was not much amount then, but now it's turned into a decent amount. I think everyone should buy some Bitcoins and keep them for long term when the price goes down.
Well, if you are waiting when the price goes down perhaps there is no exact time for that, --buying now and hold until in the next 10 years will perhaps you will see that bitcoin more and more expensive each year passed or even after when there is a halving come and after that, there will be a cooldown of the price which is a good time buy. But the problem is when it is and no one knows.
If that is regular people who hold bitcoin back then year 2010, it will perhaps already sold it. But if that is a big contributor of bitcoin like Hal Finney, perhaps they stored a huge amount of bitcoin, because as I see, most people are wanted profit.

Surely, Satoshi is holding it, and in huge amount.

There is no doubt that Satoshi has Huge amount of BTC on his holding, Cause he is the first Genesis block miner.
No one can say for sure how much Bitcoin Satoshi has mined by himself. Since Satoshi Nakamoto was the first person to mine Bitcoin, looking at the mined blocks in 2009, it is estimated that Satoshi would have received about 1.1 million Bitcoin as block rewards, cause at that time the Block rewards was 50BTC for each mined block. and surely all of his rewards still remain untouched.

There are many wallets during the early days that are still holding large amount of coins and recently we saw reports that some of the old wallets started moving to new wallets before the halving and it is impossible to identify who are all holding the coins this long without selling. May be Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss are still holding the coins without selling them as they were one of the earlier whales in the market. Roger Ver was another but since he sided with BCH i expect him to sell most of his BTC holdings.

I doubt to see who is hodling from beginning up until this time. In 2016 when bitcoin was below $1k, it would have been possible but not this time. They would have sold at least during the 2017 bull run.

Surely, Satoshi is holding it, and in huge amount haha Cheesy as others pointed it out, people who have been holding it for so long, are really too rich for to disclose their fortune which is nothing but an invitation of crimes against them Smiley

Are you saying there are no whales at the moment, hodling large quantity of bitcoin but are secured in their wallet? You only need to secure your coins whether hodling from beginning or currently.

I doubt someone else would publicly declare it now for privacy and security reasons. It will be an open invitation for hacking and other attacks.
