Satoshi is estimated to have at least 1M BTC to leverage at will,

official story is that 'some' of the keys from early blocks are 'lost' but who knows if that's true...

Shoot, what about Mt Gox, the value of those coins must be BILLIONS

Depends on who the "official" is and what proof they have.

Ah yes. Something like 600,000 - 800,000 coins stolen. I wonder what the 'authorities' did about the robbery considering the public nature of bitcoin transactions and the mass surveillance programs they run...

At least one coin, zencash, is finally working toward full support of both TLS and Tor (not sure about I2P, CJDNS, etc). They probably don't yet strictly overlay network bootstrap right, or use tofu --> subsequent fingerprint reporting / pinning though. Try it.
