I analyzed Satoshi's wallet address on block 0 using BTCTrail. Satoshi's Genesis wallet receives almost $400-$500 worth of Bitcoin every year (probably more). In fact, it's received 270 dust attacks totaling $109 in BTC alone. Knowing that Satoshi's Bitcoin will likely never be recovered or moved, why do people keep literally burning their BTC into the void??

it's like tossing a coin into a fountain for good luck

OpenBazaar had a feature where participants would burn coins to prove that they were serious about the sale. Reputation, or something like that. Maybe it's a similar thing here in some other still operating market.
