This seems to be one of his probable address It still have 50 btc from 13 jan 2009 , i.e. 10 days after the first Genesis block was mined Block number 264 https://blockchain.info/address/1CFBdvaiZgZPTZERqnezAtDQJuGHKoHSzgJust thought to share it with you guys ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) EDIT: Found some more So this is the Genesis block http://blockexplorer.com/address/1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNaPeople have tipped into it for goodluck it seems https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=70553.0EDIT : IT might belong to Hal Finney, as he said 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.

What if another individual owns that address and forgot that he has 50 btc lying in there? Lost privkey are some of the issues why there are coins sitting around some addresses that cannot be recovered. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

It might just be some team members which he had

Do you think someone still have some access to it? If the privkey was lost, then maybe it's goodbye 50 btc.

Hal finney was hashing as of block 70-> and he said he forgot about them first lot...
and back in those first few days of botcoin-qt 0.01 it was still alpha test stage and no one was considering them to have real value.. not till the imfamous bitcoinPizza event. thats when hoarding and trading really started

People give to each "object" a value, and bitcoin has a big value not only in dollars. You are right, in the first days *bitcoins* were only a set of numbers that grew . . . nobody thought that it would have a great success.

The great question is: will these bitcoins ever move or not? Is he/she (are they) still alive or what? We'll see maybe...

I just dont understand he can make something like this, and then just leave bitcoin.
He might have... He might havent.

There is no way for us to know who he was, or what are his addresses. And even if we could, why would we want to know, lets respect him enough not to pick around on what he may or may not own. He have us something awesome, lets be greatful for that
cheers

He might have... He might havent.
We dont know.
We never know , as it's said , he has left his coins as they are for now , so am sure he won't be leaving them in one place but some many places , so it might be just lying around as one of them . I remember seeing a post where "Satoshi sent himself some satoshis" ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) after the genesis block There is no way for us to know who he was, or what are his addresses. And even if we could, why would we want to know, lets respect him enough not to pick around on what he may or may not own. He have us something awesome, lets be greatful for that
cheers
We all do respect his privacy but it's just awesome seeing how such old coins are lying there, as i have been interested in some POS altcoins before , i was thinking how much would it stake if BTC had POS
