Very well explained. Let me ask a practical question about it. Everyone right now is talking and waiting for the BCH hard fork and commenting on that _________ (male genital) Craig Wright. His "war" against everyone has triggered a post on his twitter threatening to mine empty blocks. By doing so he says it will cripple the network and you dont need 51% of the hash, you just need a respectable percentage. He then moved on to say that he will do the same with BTC. Of course I believe he is a dickless man-child that hasn't had any sex that was volutary in his life but my question is – Could such an action really cripple a network as large as Bitcoin, because from what i understood from the video, mining empty blocks isnt something that changes the chance of fining legit blocks or slowing down transaction verification time.?

Arent all the nodes already accepting the dishonest chain as soon as it has more proof of work?

If a million of the 21 million are lost in storage, is there any way?

That's impossible. Instead… only try to realize the truth. There is no Satoshi. Then you'll see, that it is not the Satoshi that bends, it is only the Blockchain.
