I'm confused why somebody would claim to possess an immense fortune (Satoshi's blocks are currently worth ~$10B) without being able to verify and/or access that fortune. Congrats. Now you have a huge target on your back. Watch your step and sleep with one eye open for the rest of your life. But go try to borrow money, and the bank will ask, "Why don't you just... use some of your fortune."

> But go try to borrow money, and the bank will ask, "Why don't you just... use some of your fortune." Actually banks are much more likely to lend you money the more money you have. The ones with no money, they're the ones who have a hard time.

  Yes, I get that. You're limited by the collateral you can put against the loan. But they won't accept a pinky swear that you own the collateral. They want proof.
