A billion was moved and we don’t know the identity of the person. Not sure what you are describing.


That doesn’t matter. The billion is worthless if you can’t spend it. Spend 1$ from that wallet and your identity will be known.


yeah. you obviously don’t get how bitcoin wallets work. you can have more that one address associated with the wallet and you can spend out of multiple addresses. there are also ways to anonymize the addresses (not to mention that you can create as many addresses as you want to begin with).
