Yes. Due to an error in the reference implementation (or perhaps by intentional choice) the block reward of the genesis block is provably unspendable. However, any bitcoins that are sent to the same public key as the block reward ARE spendable (as long as Satoshi, or someone, still has the private key). and that he dont have so many that everyone believe tha he has?
It is impossible to know. Perhaps he has more. Perhaps he has less.

What is interesting about this story is that it reminds a lot of people that BTC was pre-mined like any other scammy altcoin. It isn't unthinkable that SN had other intentions than changing the world for better and I got to think a bit about his Jesus-our savior status. The scammer persona is much more human and likely, I'm afraid. Bitcoin is a piece of technology and was created by humans, not a god. Humans are erroneous.
Having said that, evidence speaks against Mr. Wright unless any of the (pre-mined) coins are moved or a signed message is received. If any of that ever happens, all hell will break lose and I'm sure we would end up with a bit of panic. Until that day...keep cool and enjoy the ride.
That is a lie. As is the case with many altcoins too. Something comes out and people get in early.. simple. Those that got in early were maybe lucky but not fraudulent. I kept hearing about Bitcoin like a broken record and kept putting it off getting involved way back. It's my own fault for waiting not Satoshi's. Pre-mine means the coins was mined privately with public access blocked. That is NOT what happened.

You may have a fundamental misconception about how Bitcoin works? the bitcoinrichlist does not track wealthy people, nor wealthy wallets. It tracks wealthy addresses. Any wallet may have multiple addresses, and any person may have multiple wallets. Also, the bitcoins that (e.g.) are in cold storage for any of the exchanges may be stored at a single address, so any given address may contain bitcoin that 'rightfully belong' to many people. The net of this is that the bitcoinrichlist is useless for discerning distribution of bitcoin/people.

THEORY OF CRAIG DOES NOT = SATOSHI::
Craig/Satoshi knew he was under investigation for tax evasion issues related to bitcoin. So he manipulated a story that made him look like Satoshi, with an additional 1,000,000 bitcoins that he would have been further guilty of tax evasion on - thereby compounding his tax evasion problems. All part of a brilliant plan to.... Wait, What?!?! WTF!?!?! That doesn't make any sense!
exactly. Another nonsense conspiracy claim shot down. And the Craig/Satoshi genie wriggles a bit further out of bottle everyone is franitically trying to stuff him back into.
Genie = Out of bottle. Cannot undo.

it was a 3 pronged approach 1. the word bitcoin hit media (no one cared if it was about Wright, silkroad, winklevoss) just the words bitcoin got them curious what it was. 2. its near the end of the chinese financial year. chinese need to hide their profits and they cant just put it in bank accounts. so they buy 'assets' to declare less profits 3. when people in (1) are looking into what bitcoin is, they see chinese bitcoin buy-up and got these curious folk more interested the spike isnt as high this year because the chinese in 2013 were hoping to buy-in in december and cashout in january. but buying in at $500-$1000, and then tanking in january, along with mtgox saga. left alot of chinese businesses afraid to repeat that strategy

what he said. it just all coming together. the story of bitcoin is a winner. Once mainstream media starts talking about it - the people will start typing it into google, and it will grow. does not matter what gets the word "bitcoin" out there.

Epic Fail for Wired and Gizmodo. We will remember this failure for years
Just like we are remembering the other epic failures in the past of people trying to locate real Satoshi!

It's becoming clear that everything the "media" pushes is a hoax, a lie, propaganda or part of some satanic agenda to make people stupid, violent sexually confused retards. All in the name of enriching the blood sucking killer clowns that make up the 1% and keeping them in power. I'm starting to suspect all the missing children end up in the ground meat.

Haha, I do love it when conspiritards quote the famous, "1%" nonsense. You *do* know that means you are talking about over Seventy Million people, right? You are essentially claiming that 70,000,000 people are all working together across the globe, communicating and plotting and implementing a nefarious NWO plan. Seventy million people. Seriously? Quick question for the likes of you, when is a tragic world event not a fucking 'False Flag' and how do you tell the difference? *SMH* Amphetamine Psychosis is a hell of thing. /OT It is possible that Craig Wright intentionally 'leaked' this information to the media in order to secure himself a do-or-die business deal that might rescue him from the clutches of the ATO, or it could be that he is part of the original group and he created the pseudonym. The trouble is that with him playing the, "No! I am absolutely not SN", it allows him to benefit from the notoriety and belief that he might be SN, without forcing him to actually prove cryptographically that he is.

No, but the mistery goes further on, now that Craig S Wright has completely vanished from the web.

Although this news by itself is useless, at least it is very interesting the great expectation caused by it, which at least contributes to positioning the bitcoin issues as a topic of general interest.

At this point the media is going to suffer from "the boy that cried wolf" syndrome, basically they have said so many times that they got the real satoshi that when they eventually do get the real one, no one is going to believe them, which is actually good for us because that is the ultimate defense for satoshi against his privacy.

Once the real satoshi appears, there will be proof. I don't see why anyone wouldn't believe the person found is satoshi, provided it's proven in a legitimate way.

Satoshi Nakamoto is intelligent enough to stay in stealth mode.
But the media can't bear that. In our society it is so important and wanted to get famous. And then comes this genius Satoshi Nakamoto and breaks all the rules.
