What if Satoshi sold his keys, not his coins?

Satoshi would be out there in the world with a whole bunch of unreported fiat, little or no Bitcoin, and deep protocol expertise.

The buyer would have to be almost as visionary as Satoshi to drop a big chunk of fiat that early in Bitcoin's life. So he'd be out there with the keys to one of the greatest fortunes on earth, a pretty good track record of seeing the writing on the wall, and maybe comparatively little fiat wealth.

How would both the Buyer and Satoshi behave in the world today in that imagined scenario?

To paraphrase Muab'dib: The keys ARE the coins. The coins Are the keys

so i'm a bit confused what you mean

also, anyone who could build bitcoin back then can slide into any high end job at very high wages anyway

What I mean is, people assume Satoshi's coins are still in his possession and/or that he hasn't made any fiat money off them (because they never transferred). I'm saying they could stay at the Satoshi address and the previous statement can be false.
