How do we know for sure these are Satoshi's old addresses? is there a way to tell?

No there is no way to tell if it's satoshi or even who actually own this
We don't even know if the guy who really owns this , remember about it anymore

This sounds about right. I think a lot of people like to speculate about satoshi but ...
Satoshi appears to want to be left alone and we should respect that.

Sending tips to Satoshi's addresses is like throwing pennies in a wishing well.

It's just strange to think that Satoshi or Hall thought of those coins as we think of todays Satoshi's. {zero value}

It is sad that those coins are lost forever...  Sad  ..... If I was Satoshi, I would send it to a account owned by our MtGox King... shift all the spotlight onto the bad boys of bitcoin. {Let them explain}

This will be one of the biggest unsolved mysteries of the world. {Why leave such a huge treasure?} ---> dubbed the "Million coin mystery"  Grin Grin Grin

It is possible that this address belongs to Satoshi , though it's not sure.
Even if it is , they might probably not have forgetten or lost them , they are just lying there .

Just found something
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=155054.0

the BTC addres might belong to Hal Finney , seeing how he says ,
When Satoshi announced the first release of the software, I grabbed it right away. I think I was the first person besides Satoshi to run bitcoin. I mined block 70-something, and I was the recipient of the first bitcoin transaction, when Satoshi sent ten coins to me as a test. I carried on an email conversation with Satoshi over the next few days, mostly me reporting bugs and him fixing them.


It's sad we lost such a great person and may be those bitcoins along with him
may he Rest in Peace Smiley

Anyone know how many addresses Satoshi may have (from the beginning), I mean is there any talk about the beginning days beyond the white paper?

Sergio Lerner has spent more time and effort than is really healthy tracking down which Bitcoin addresses belong to Satoshi.  You can read his opinions, and his reasoning/methodology, here. 

https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/the-well-deserved-fortune-of-satoshi-nakamoto/

As best he can make out, Satoshi has something 1.14M bitcoins. 

As such, Satoshi has already made history, back when Bitcoin was poking its nose above $1000 per coin, as the first anonymous billionaire of the 21st Century.

But as far as I could tell, he only mined to secure the blockchain.  I don't think he has any interest in those coins.

I wish someone had an estimate of how many of those coins did satoshi sell.

Wow! that is amazing , thanks for the share man!
Though he mined to secure the blockchain at that time but we cannot deny that he have so much coins and they belong to him and seeing how great person he is , he won't just forget them , so he have them and is keeping them like a BOSS
Great Smiley

One day, when he becomes very sick of people misusing his creation, he will dump those coins onto the exchanges and flush the price of Bitcoin down the drain.

He will then donate all those earning to charity and "poof" ....be gone for the next 25 years.  Shocked

Those coins can do a lot of damage, and a lot of good at the same time.  Sad

If he ever decide to sell those coins, it would be seen as the biggest pre-mine anyway... and that would just be a sad day.

i doubt if satoshi has ever sold his bitcoins. you are comparing satoshi with any altcoin dev who mines and dumps the coin. if he has ever spend any bitcoin i am sure it was for giveaways.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

I don't think he will become sick of people , he made bitcoin and if people use it for bad purpose, it's not his mistake .
People will always exploit everything , that's why it's said nothing is perfect.
Though if someday he comes with his coin to sell or raise market , that will be an awesome day to watch.

i doubt if satoshi has ever sold his bitcoins. you are comparing satoshi with any altcoin dev who mines and dumps the coin. if he has ever spend any bitcoin i am sure it was for giveaways.

Yep! satoshi is the real deal Grin

And how are you planning to do that?
