Why do people invest in BTC when the owner could literally at any moment release 1 billion worth of BTC into the market?
Because satoshi nakamoto is probably dead,his coins havent moved for years,and he wouldnt just dump all his coins anyway.

that's where youre wrong kiddo
the banks created bitcoin so theycould burn the entire market with a stunt like this
crypto would be dead forever

dumping 1 million bitcoins on the market would cause a crash but certainly wouldnt kill bitcoin

its not gonna happen
even if satoshi is/are still alive he would know that most of his coins would pretty much equal a giant premine, thus he/they refrain from dumping
personally i think the coins will never move again

In theory banks could do just that and we would end up with Rwanda-style inflation on a global scale.

This is actually valid point. It will need to be addressed somewhere in the future assuming there is demand for mainstream-use crypto.
Before that, just enjoy the ride.

seems like a huge waste of time propping up a currency for a decade in hopes that people would use it
Do the folks from localbitcoins identify you in any way? My friend wants to change some cash.

Why not use blockchain technology to manage ledgers? On what scale is this idea being implemented?

sooner or later their key will prove weak and someone will spend them even if they would otherwise be lost.
