Topic: Where is Satoshi's Bitcoin Stash ? (Read 228 times)

There are two sided outcomes as some are getting profits by holding bitcoin while others who goes opposite have also lost their money because they were impatient to hold during the crash situation and want to get out of the market due to FUD surrounding and panic sell.But we must not see btc as a financial tool to get rich overnight but freedom from centralised control we are under from ages.

The thing with Genesis block reward is not a quirk or a problem, it is by design considering that block #0 was mined before the software was released and it is hard coded into each node's source code. But you are right from block #1 onward they are all the same considering spendability.

We don't know who mined block #11, 12 or any other block or how many computers Satoshi was controlling.  In fact some people speculate that Satoshi had access to more than one computer to provide enough hashrate to mine bitcoin in early days.
BTW we only know for sure that Satoshi mined block #0 (Genesis block) and block #9 (the reward he publicly announced to have spent).

it seems op, worrying that bitcoin is an innovation scam, which has been manipulated for the sake of a satoshi's wealth, and in fact until now there is no evidence that the bitcoin maker re-accessed and made a mistake from his idea, because I'm sure he was happy with his idea being accepted when many people deny it is not because of the price of an idea

Yet you seem to have missed the parts about what is a wallet (since your question shows great confusion) and how safe is that.
Even more, by telling that the devs would lock Satoshi's funds is not only spreading misinformation, it's also insulting the devs. That's how I see this.


The thing is ... Bitcoin is not only for making people richer. There are so many good things Bitcoin brings... from innovation and technology to actual freedom (financial freedom).


Read more and ask more. Cross-check the information you get, don't just believe everything. Then you will know much more and will get better (and hopefully less insulting) answers. Enjoy the ride!

After I discovering Bitcoin, I reading a lots. Learning anything and everything possibles. I was a simple Monk. Now I have become a Divital Monk. In the Bitcoin community, there was no one Digital Monk before me.
Thank you for your confusion. I am not an ordinary Hashish s.oking Monk but I am a SHA-256 hash calculating Monk. As you know it by my Forum ID.

I am very new to this Bitcoin Forum. Please do not insult me. I am praying for all Forum members that one they will be more richer by  trading Bitcoin instead of keeping their money in the bank account for 1.4% interest.

Bitcoin is making people richer every day. I don't understand why Warren Buffet is missing the point. Elon Musk has made 17 Billons out of Bitcoin trading. JP Morgan is also has invested a large amount.

I will buy soon more and more for my charity support. Any profits I will make will be spent for charity.

That's what I was thinking when I read it.  OP, you should take some time to learn a little more about how Bitcoin works.  Backup a private key and restore it to a different wallet.  Once you understand the transitive and immutability properties of Bitcoin, it will become more than just a way you might be able to make a few bucks.

Is it possible to make offline transaction and publish it later in the Blockchain ?

I have bought few bitcoin and I want make offline transaction to a paper waller. How do I do it ? Please teach me.

Thanks.

The answers are simple if one knows a bit more about bitcoin.
Satoshi's stash, his coins, all are... all on the blockchain. A wallet doesn't contain coins, it contains keys that allows spending coins.

How many they are.. nobody knows, since nobody knows exactly all the addresses / wallets Satoshi owns.


The story seems to be that you may have been smoking something too strong for you. Or you've read the writings of somebody who smoke that. You better get better sources of information. Bitcoin doesn't allow neither stealing nor blocking one's access to his coins if you don't know the private key.

Lol! You are trying to get an answer to a mystery which the entire bitcoin community don't know. There is an address which we believe belongs to Satoshi Nakamoto. Read the below article,

https://bitcoinplanet.net/info/what-is-the-wallet-address-of-satoshi-nakamoto/

Also the rebranding to QT to core doesn't affect the functionality of Satoshi's wallets till the time he holds the private key. That shows the true beauty of decentralization. It's not a bank where a group of people can ban you from accessing your own money!

He can't cash his coins anonymously because the blockchain is public information and people will realize if satoshi move his coins.

By the way, satoshi doesn't have opponents. This is not a competence.


The only way to do this is if he swap his bitcoins to Monero. That's the right way to be anonymous in the crypto world. But in the moment he send the moneros to an exchange, than he can be tracked.

Satoshi has probably split those millions and different wallets so as to make sure that if anything were to happen to one of his wallet, the damage wouldn't be too drastic so it's not really that dangerous for him to sell some of it if he wants to but given that people will notice, pretty sure that Satoshi hasn't spent a single satoshi from his stash.

Yes. He can't risk he can maintain his anonymity after several technological advances today like the chainalysis and some groups.

Old dormant wallets are somehow being monitored. When an old wallet suddenly sends out its BTC to exchange, there will be tweets letting everybody know about it. Exchanges today can't be trusted, you know they can prevent them from withdrawing or asking for KYC. Old wallets in the time when Satoshi was still active may just be as suspicious to those tracking him.

If cash some of his coin anonymously then how will hisopponents know it ?

There are various way he can cash his Bitcoin ?  He can donate some to charity and the IP of charity will be on meta data or he can use Tor to sell his Bitcoin private to some one.

And he still can maintain his anonymity, can't he ?

This is perhaps the most important mystery in the cryptocurrency, the wallet of the creator of bitcoin and the personality itself...most likely, we will not find out about it, because Satoshi will not endanger the disclosure of his identity by cashing out a few bitcoins from his wallet.

If there was quirk in Genesis block then block # 1 to 9 did not have quirk or any problems. Satoshi made the first transaction to Hal Finney. So from the Coinbase transaction 50 BTC Satoshi gave 10 Bitcoins and left 40 and later it went to other address. It was the test transaction.

Now what about block #11 and # 12 and all other Block Satoshi Mined from his one single computer ? 

Every think no body knows who is Satoshi ?  No one know what he is doing now ?  No one knows what has happened to his Bitcoin Stash ?  This are quite interesting story.

I am fascinated about those things same like every body who has interest to know the true story of Bitcoin invention.

How many Bitcoin does Satoshi really mined ? Did he mined more than 1.1 million ?

If Satoshi is a Japanese Samurai it's mean he must be speaking Japanese ?  There are two language in Japan. Main is Nippon and the other one is Ainu.

Satoshi must be from Kyoto and speak Nippon or from Hokaido and speak Ainu. But he published his white paper in English mean he lives some where in a English speaking country. There is huge out cry in the news media and Internet, will the real Satoshi please stand up?

When he read this kinds of news, I think Satoshi does stand up from his sofa where he sits and relax but when he stand up , no body see him.

The news media should publish a Article saying, Will the real Satoshi please Stand-up and come forward and reveal your Identity. Then Satoshi might definitely stand up from his Sofa and come out of his Room and say to the media, "here I Am Satoshi Nakamoto" , why are you interested in me ?
What do you want ?

Stop searching for me. I am not hiding. I am here and there, every where, you blind folks , you cannot see me. Now open your eyes and search for me in the Google or in the YouTube and yee shall find me. He who find me, I will invite him and give him some Bitcoins, may be 2 or 10.

Just like Satoshi's identity, the amount of coins and where they are and whether Satoshi has access are all unknown to us.

All bitcoins are in "bitcoin blockchain"!

Changing the reference implementation's name is not going to change whether someone has access to their "keys" or not.

No, because as part of consensus rules the 50BTC reward of the Genesis block is not spendable.
If Satoshi has the private key, he can spend any other coins that were sent to it though.

They did when it was handed over to Gavin Andresen.

According to Bitcoin protocol the network decides consensus rules not merit or individuals or ...

Where is Satoshi's Bitcoin Stash ?  Is in Bitcoin Blockchain ?  Did Bitcoin Foundation played a role to change the Original Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin QT has been branded as Bitcoin Core to stop Satoshi Nakamoto from get access to his Bitcoin Stash ?  What is the story story ? Some might know about it and can do some investigation about how Bitcoin QT became Bitcoin Core and for what ?

Can Satoshi actually get access to his Genesis Block ?
Will the Bitcoin Community leaders agree with Satoshi ? On the maters of Who should be the Lead Maintainer of Bitcoin Core ?  The rules are Merit according to the Bitcoin Protocol instead of Bunch of illegitimate miners who .are the majority hash to get power by deception based on false consensus ?
