Maybe this is the serial killer from the darknet that is killing people for bitcoins! He asks like 10-15k in bitcoins for it, maybe he was around in 2009, and got alot of bitcoins that way. Because I see alot of transactions of 500 bitcoins, that must be something sketchy
Exchanges, most likely. Or gambling sites transferring funds to their cold wallets.

Go mine on testnet, see how many coins you can rack up in a couple of weeks. Actually, there's more hash rate currently on testnet than there was on bitcoin back in 2009 / 2010. Honestly, mining 52k coins really wasn't that hard in 2009 / 2010 era. Someone with a laptop CPU could have mined that much. Owning 80-90% of the hashing power wasn't very uncommon.

It's quite literally exactly like bitcoin, but testnet. Quite literally, change 1 value in your bitcoind software, and it should work with testnet.

You could technically run your own, with your own pool. Really, it was meant to test "new" features of bitcoin. So I been reading some peoples replies, how does one earn btc besides buying it..?

Back in 2010 / 2011, you could easily mine a massive amount of coins. If you had a decent CPU (just a quad core) back in the day, you could easily mine a block with 50 bitcoin daily. Now-a-days, the block reward was cut in half, and there's so much competition that you'd never hit a block (you have a greater chance of getting hit by a meteor, sleeping with a super model, and winning the jackpot on a lottery all in a single day).

I know an early adapter who mined 50 bitcoins/day using a entry level pc the first days, now he is the president of the italian bitcoin fundation, he's spending most of his free time to spread the word about btc and its innovations.

Make a scam exchange, like Mtgox.
As much as I hate to say it, this is true to an extent. Fly by night exchanges (especially for altcoins) seem to pop up all the time, and people flock to send money there. Some of these businesses could disappear overnight and no one could likely do anything. Some do appear more legit -- Crypsty is registered in Florida, for instance. The funny thing is, despite how old Cryptsy is, and them being a legitimate company that's registered and follows the legislation in the US, they still aren't trusted by a ton of people in the crypto community. Yet people will jump on a brand new exchange and dump everything they have on to it.

I mean come on there are 2^160 possible wallets in which one could make the mistake of sending it to. Then again you can still hope for it, but is it likely? Probably not.
