But Satoshi was just a boy and he didn't take the key with him.

The key, huh?

Bitcoiners better hope that "key" isn't lost. That would make Satoshi's stash value-less, wouldn't it?

If the key is lost and Satoshi's million-BTC stash becomes value-less, Biycoiners will be more than happy.

In Satoshi's own words, it makes everyone else's Bitcoins more valuable. Think of it as a donation to everyone else.



Think about the apple and the tree. If the tree doesn't have any value, then the apples won't have value. "Value" is a made up thing, it's pure perception. If people found out Satoshi's cache was value-less, perception-wise, then Bitcoin is value-less.

Losing private keys to Satoshi's coins do not make them value-less. It only makes them inaccessible.


Tomato / tomato.... 


I know, but the OP doesn't make any sense when he says "If people found out Satoshi's cache was value-less, perception-wise, then Bitcoin is value-less."

It also rules out the possibility of Satoshi disrupting the market with his holdings in future.
