The reason Satoshi Nakamoto has so many Bitcoins is that he didn't have to mine them, the system was just designed at the start with him having them. The first person to actually mine Bitcoins, and the second name on the blockchain after Satoshi Nakamoto, was Hal Finney; after that if Satoshi wanted more bitcoins he'd have to mine them just like everybody else.</font></div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default"><font size="4">But if Hal Finney was Satoshi Nakamoto why didn't he donate his Bitcoins to Alcor when he died in 2014? After all he knew he was dying and if he could trust Alcor to freeze his body you'd think he could trust them with his Bitcoins. And if Satoshi never had any intention of spending those Bitcoins why did he set it up that way? Maybe he got hit by a bus or something.</font></div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default"><font size="4">John K Clark</font></div></div></div>
