Massive Satoshi Nakamoto Fortune: Crypto World Stunned!
The mysterious person who created Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, is in the news again after overtaking computer tycoon Bill Gates in net worth. According to recent research from Arkham, Satoshi Nakamoto’s estimated net worth has increased to approximately $116.7 billion after it was discovered that a wallet thought to be his contained about 1.9 million Bitcoin. An important factor was the dramatic increase in the value of Bitcoin beyond $106,000, which in a single day increased Satoshi’s holdings by about $2.5 billion.
Bitcoin Creator Nakamoto Surpasses Bill Gates in Global Wealth Rankings
Gates’ current net worth, on the other hand, was $116.2 billion, which puts Bitcoin founder Nakamoto just ahead of Gates in the world wealth rankings. Nakamoto may soon surpass other well-known billionaires, including Mark Zuckerberg of Meta and Warren Buffett, if the current trend continues.
Since Bitcoin is still trading far above $100,000, there is growing conjecture on Nakamoto’s possible ascent in the world wealth rankings. Satoshi’s estimated net worth may soar to an incredible $219 billion if the cryptocurrency hits the $200,000 level, making him the second-richest person in the world.
Nakamoto Nears Buffett in Wealth as Bitcoin Holdings Top $120 Billion
Despite never having been moved or sold, Nakamoto‘s estimated 1.096 million Bitcoins are currently worth over $120 billion, making him the eleventh richest person in the world. Therefore, Bitcoin would need to increase in value by at least $37 billion in order to beat Buffett, whose net worth is approximately $157.5 billion.
