Alot of wild assumptions. Have you seen anything that corroborates that?
Most likely, he used a pseudo-name and was cautious about online footprint, which we can assume since he was into cryptography..
Not to mention we are also concluding that that satoshi lived in the western world.
We will find out one way or another I suppose. I choose to believe he's watching things unfold from a distance.
If his BTC ever moves, we can continue to speculate.
Well the satoshi coins are like the ultimate honey pot though. Normal utxo holders don’t need to worry about a targeted attempt to brute force their keys anywhere near what is surely going on with that one. So if they do ever move, my money would be on that being the reason
Personally i’ve always sort of assumed Satoshi is “no longer with us” (based solely off a quote that is always hard to find where he said ~“i don’t have much time left”)
arent all of his coins in separate wallets?
NM I found it:

Yes!! It kinda be like that don’t you think? Just me?
Honestly, it reads to me that he was just busy with other stuff... but its possible I suppose.
You can’t hide from the nsa my man.
Now I wonder... Would the US intelligence apparatus having 1M btc in their coffers be a net benefit to the adoption cycle?
If they knew they had the largest stockpile of it ... Would it make them more likely to let things play out?
Thinking out loud...
