"Satoshi Nakamoto is believed to amassed about one million Bitcoins which would give him a net worth, if all were converted to cash, of about $450m." Anyone know what this was worth at its peak?

#13"I never, ever want to be in front of a camera ever again" Can't blame him there. Some Bloomberg mobile reporter came up to me once for an interview about BTC hitting $1k, and I redirected him to Google HQ. Fuck that soundbite, MSM, lazy shit.

#14That's really interesting. I've been updating this Quora answer for a while and he actually commented on it saying "People always know" in Sep 2015 before his name ever came up.
I'm not sure I believe his comments fully in his latest video though. It seems he's been conflicted for a long time on whether to reveal himself but for all the times he says he wants to be left alone, he easily could have but yet here he is.

They were close to or over $1k at it's peak. So - somewhere close to a bil.
