Has there been any movement from those wallets in the years since Satoshi went dark?
Comment on Peter Todd in hiding after being “unmasked” as bitcoin creator

Unless somebody can “predict” (e.g. announce before executing) movement of coins from verified Satoshi wallets, I won’t believe any of these unmaskings.
I would love to know who Satoshi is, but that level of proof would require a willing Satoshi and they (singular or plural) appear to not be up for that.

My money is still on Paul Le Roux.

There is an easier way, just sign something with Satoshi’s private key and no one will have a doubt that you are Satoshi. No need for all this ridiculous drama.

Technically that’s the same thing. Both are signatures with a private key.

Agreed, except that moving coins costs money while signing something with the private key doesn’t.

Both actions would cost billions more than the any amount they would move or a signed transaction.
The price would crash knowing those coins were back in play.
It’d be a huge influx of potential coins.
