Hal finney was hashing as of block 70-> and he said he forgot about them first lot...

and back in those first few days of botcoin-qt 0.01 it was still alpha test stage and no one was considering them to have real value.. not till the imfamous bitcoinPizza event. thats when hoarding and trading really started

The death of hal finney was a really big loss the the community , he was a great guy , i read of him before as how he was going up with satoshi and about how he mentioned satoshi to be a yound and hard working guy

There is no way for us to know who he was, or what are his addresses. And even if we could, why would we want to know,
lets respect him enough not to pick around on what he may or may not own. He have us something awesome, lets be greatful for that

cheers

Hmm.. Even if it was his, we would never fully know.

I just dont understand he can make something like this, and then just leave bitcoin.

He might have... He might havent.

We dont know.

This seems to be one of his probable address
It still have 50 btc from 13 jan 2009 , i.e. 10 days after the first Genesis block was mined
Block number 264
https://blockchain.info/address/1CFBdvaiZgZPTZERqnezAtDQJuGHKoHSzg

Just thought to share it with you guys Smiley


The great question is:
will these bitcoins ever move or not?
Is he/she (are they) still alive or what?

We'll see maybe...

Its funny to see people sending coins to those addresses just for fun. More bitcoin wasted.
Here is another thread from the past about his coins;

People give to each "object" a value, and bitcoin has a big value not only in dollars. You are right, in the first days *bitcoins* were only a set of numbers that grew . . . nobody thought that it would have a great success.

What if another individual owns that address and forgot that he has 50 btc lying in there? Lost privkey are some of the issues why there are coins sitting around some addresses that cannot be recovered.  Sad

That might be the case, that's why i said probable
Genesis block was mined on 3rd jan and 1st block on 9 jan
How much people may have joined in 4 days ?
It might just be some team members which he had

Never saw the word probable sorry. Cheesy It can be one of his teams though, seeing that it appeared near the genesis block.
Do you think someone still have some access to it? If the privkey was lost, then maybe it's goodbye 50 btc.

EDIT:
Found some more
So this is the Genesis block

People have tipped into it for goodluck it seems Cheesy

EDIT :
IT might belong to Hal Finney, as he said

When Satoshi announced the first release of the software, I grabbed it right away. I think I was the first person besides Satoshi to run bitcoin. I mined block 70-something, and I was the recipient of the first bitcoin transaction, when Satoshi sent ten coins to me as a test. I carried on an email conversation with Satoshi over the next few days, mostly me reporting bugs and him fixing them.
