So let me get this straight. Sztorc decides to fork Bitcoin and call it eCash. Before it goes live, he edits the copy—changes who owns what, reassigns coins he doesn't control. No key. No signature. Just "in our version, these belong to someone else now." Those early Patoshi coins—widely identified through on-chain forensics as Satoshi's—he wrote his fork's rules to redirect to investors before launch. Your actual Bitcoin? Untouched. Satoshi still owns those coins on mainnet. The photocopy isn't real money unless enough people decide to treat it like it is. And there's the issue. Because what this proves is that the mechanism works. Social consensus can route around cryptographic ownership. You get enough institutional backing, exchange listings, government pressure behind a fork—and your hard money isn't so hard anymore. They don't need your keys. They just need consensus. And consensus can be bought, pressured, or legislated. The cryptography was never the weakest link. It's the social layer.
