I really wonder how they got in there
Someone could have just been brute forcing the email for the past 5 years. Although if it were that you think the provider would have noticed by now. I can only imagine how many failed attempts it would take for a decent password.
I guess we will just have to enjoy the popcorn and see if he reveals the attack vector.
Since bitcoin has became really valuable problaby a lot of hackers have been triying to bruteforce all known Satoshi accounts for the past years . |

I hope this ends up being Hal Finney gave his password to someone else, and the 25 BTC goes to ALS

The lost password reset question was a birthday. Probably would have been easy to crack. On p2pfoundation the birth date is either 1974 (Jan 1 - September  or 1975 (September 9 - December 31). Watching when the age changed from 38-39 would have given the exact date. That is of course if he was consistent with the birth date. |

The fool used a primary gmx under his full name and had aliases set up underneath it. He’s also alive. Even if Satoshi set the email up in his real name before releasing Bitcoin, it would make little sense to leave it there when disappearing. But he would have to put some name in the boxes. |

Supposedly, the name starts with an "A". Albert Einstein? My guess is locked in. But really... I bet it'll be someone no ones expecting. Shits about to go down. US going to hunt him down. Slap him with a crime. Seize all the Bitcoins. |

Doubt Satoshi would order mining equipment in 2013 to an abandoned address, also doubt he'd mine coins anymore considering he has a ton of them.
Adrien Chen was quick to get in there I see

In America, are you legally required to specify a real name when ordering things online?

Let's give the man some credit - he invented Bitcoin and chose to remain anonymous, surely he can manage that if he has remained hidden for so long.
