Most of the donators are busy now in making more bitcoins into their savings and many of the accounts were hacked in 2015 so some of them was donators accounts too.
Can I know why you are searching the donators?

Most of them I think worry about their donation...But that is life something can no value today but someday It will be priceless,and if they didn't donate they will sell them for $100 or similar price..nothing to worry..hahahahahhaaa
I think most of them don't. One of the things that I noticed about the very early Crypto community is that it was more about the code and the economic concept than the money.
The pure speculation, greed, mania and hype only came after it became more popular.
I’ve always thought my 10 BTC donation was in line with other entertainment options. For example, at the current valuation, my 10 BTC donation boils down to about $13/hr of logged in time. That’s not far from the cost of watching a movie, and cheaper than going to dinner or a bar. I don’t regret my donation at all.
Meh.. I'm still around.. alive and kicking..
Dude, can you like explain a little on what happened to most of the donators? I am especially interested in knowing what happened to those who got their title removed and more importantly, what theymos actually did to MNW's bitcointalk access. I wish theymos were a little more active now-a-days. 
I am too lazy at the moment to go for witch hunting.

I'm appreciative of the donators that helped maintain our little forum here. I'm actually quite impressed that more of the accounts haven't been hacked, stolen, sold, lost, etc. Interesting that so many of them have kept their account secure and reputation clean. I know we have a handful of troublemakers on the list, but this is to be expected in my opinion. Thanks for paving the way, for real.
Source? I haven't seen a single donator crying about their 10 BTC loss. Would be interested in reading more about this, unless you are just making things up.
This thread has a lot of references for some good reading. Thanks for the links, and stories folks!
now crying for their 10 BTC lose. which if they kept with them they would get a huge profit today.

This shit forum is the same forum that you It is easy to see the ugly side of Bitcointalk. Spamming, scamming, trolling and disagreements. I didn't have a high opinion of bitcointalk until recently. Discovering the hidden gems changed my view of this forum..
Researching The most iconic bitcointalk threads. History on Bitcointalk. changed my opinion.

This shit forum is the same forum that you
Molecular left a nice legacy in bitcointalk history - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/joe-is-dead-httpfindmeifyoucaneu-120918 - AKA joe23 of http://findmeifyoucan.eu challenged the forum to "find him" for a 14 BTC reward.
MelMan2002 claimed the prize with the following unexpected discovery.
You are molecular. He is the only one who mistypes "silkraod" like that.

I actually thought they are in the place where they enjoyed their profit somewhere.

During that time though 10BTC is like nothing to them. now that its more than $5000, its a lot of things already. If it was just $500 in total of the 10btc, they wouldn't mind. It happened already and all they have is the bragging rights. A donator badge here in the forum deserves respect
You got the name against this one wrong. It's "Vasco" and not "BitcoinExchange"
Thanks - updated - added their changed name.
I wonder if the account got taken for a default - it says SEIZED by Gunthar
Yes it is now with Gunthar. Here is the loan that Vasco defaulted:

Why did you say like that sir? I guess they have a lot of money and 10 bitcoin probably too easy to gain with their job. And I'm less comfortable with your words that say "shit forum" 
. I really like this forum sir. If I have 1000 bitcoin I will donate 10 bitcoins gladly to make this forum alive and growing. If necessary I will also integrate blockchain technology into this forum for stronger community and security. So, please if there is any lack of this forum, this should be the responsibility of all cryptocurrency activists. I also really appreciate you for being a copper member, in other words, you also have donations and donate for the future of our beloved forum. Thank you, sir.

None that I know of actually ever did that.Quite a few bitched about forum moderators/admins and left for good, but I've never heard anyone of them lament their "lost 10 BTC".

I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
I agree - I doubt many would have real regrets. You can't have regrets in Crypto. You'll miss the next opportunity if you think too much about what you have spent or missed out on.
Spending crypto is actually good for the Crypto itself - it wasn't designed to be HODLed forever. It is the people that use it, mine it, buy it and sell it that give it value.
If I would spent time on reliving the lost opportunities I would be permanently depressed and wouldn't enjoy the "wins".
In Crypto - shit happens and you move on to the next opportunity.
If you had 10 BTC then and you don't have any now then your mistake wasn't to use the 10 BTC but to have a lack of faith in BTC that prevented you from getting more.

Matthew N. Wright https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/matthew-n-wright-24749 (banned? - untrustworthy tag ? ) 2014
MNW and theymos very much did not get along, although he was previously a staff member. I remember seeing his negative rating on theymos show up that resulted from him being on someone's trust list, that said that theymos is just a 21 year old kid who ran an illegal stock exchange.
MNW was apparently banned and temporarily unbanned a number of times so he can post updates in regards to repaying his debts. Although he said at the time he was trolling when he was guaranteeing repayment of pirate40's ponzi, he did eventually pay a lot of money who took him up on his bet.
