    What would be a problem is if his addresses were brute forced (to succesfully find the private key to one or more of his addresses) because that would mean that bitcoin is indeed vulnerable and that could bring the price to virtually zero....if satoshi(if alive) instead wanted to spend his bitcoins there would be an initial panic-selling but price would recover quickly enough. after all even satoshi has the right to spend his bitcoins, NO? if satoshi(or his relatives) wanted to transfer/spend the bitcoins he should announce it in an anonimous message telling everybody not to worry after all.do you agree with me?

    After all i think he is probably dead or hiding or he lost(or never saved) his private keys . i hope for the hiding option

    i had a look at this forum (that he founded) and his second last post is in december 2010 when he said that he didn't like the attention that wikileaks had brought to bitcoin. "the swarm is coming towards us" he said. then he disappeared. Gavin Andersen said that the last time he excahnged a message with him was when he told satoshi that he had been called by the CIA for an interview.....i think he was very scared. but we don't know what happened to him. maybe we will find out somehow
