If he hasn't committed seppuku by now he surely will soon. I mean even the Chernobyl operators only fucked up the immediate area, Satoshi Nakamoto will no doubt go down in history as environmental enemy no 1 right up with the oil and coal industry.
As he's kept his anonymity for so long, I don't think he has much to fear. The bad name only is on his once-used pseudonym. And contrary to those who succeeded him as Bitcoin advocates, he might never have had the illusion of doing something good for mankind with Bitcoin. The earliest players were the ones guaranteed to cash in the biggest, and that was exactly the plan. He long since has cashed in royally and lives his life in abundance, by whatever name he might go today, maybe not even caring much for whatever happens to cryptocurrencies in general or Bitcoin specifically...

Actually, most of the early accounts -- including Satoshi's -- remain untouched, with mark-to-market values in the billions.

Maybe you should google what seppuku is. Whether he is anonymous or not is irrelevant.
