Title: Sudden bitcoin empowerment phenomenon
Post by: TeslaUa on October 13, 2013, 10:45:20 PM
A few people who happened to amass a significant hoard of bitcoins are in interesting situation now. Take Satoshi himself. The guy sits on privkeys of well earned millions (https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/the-well-deserved-fortune-of-satoshi-nakamoto/). How about other superstars? Ross keeps quite a hoard from FBI  as they say (http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/oct/07/fbi-bitcoin-silk-road-ross-ulbricht). Well deserved? Hmm... depends on point of view I guess?

The thing is - I predict that we are going to see quite some more of Names in bitcoin. It is interesting to see how their capital disperses.

Satoshi (my bet) is taking strategic role somewhat similar to Ripple guys with their gazillions of XRP. They do not rush to flood the market. Instead they essentially holding another level of control over their creations. Shuttleworth (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth) style. Their greed is in struggle with good will to the project. The kind of things that move continents really :)

Who will be next bitcoin star you guess?

Keep in mind that this sort of stuff can kinda backfire and work as a curse. Ross isn't too happy with all his bitcoins now my guess.
