Satoshi Nakamoto- Bitcoin just hit a historic milestone, and it’s shaking up the billionaire rankings.
Satoshi Nakamoto– The mysterious creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, is now unofficially the 11th richest person on the planet after BTC soared past $120,000 over the weekend.
How Much Bitcoin Does Satoshi Nakamoto Own?
Nakamoto is believed to hold 1.096 million BTC across thousands of untouched wallets. At the current price of $122,000, that stash is worth over $131 billion, according to blockchain analytics firm Arkham.
That puts him ahead of Michael Dell ($125.1B) — but Forbes still doesn’t count crypto wallets in its official rankings.
Could Satoshi Become the World’s Richest Person?
To surpass Elon Musk, currently worth over $404 billion, Bitcoin would need to skyrocket to $370,000 — a 208% increase from current levels. Sounds wild? Not to everyone.
Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas predicts Satoshi could become the second-richest billionaire by 2026 if Bitcoin follows its historic 50% annual growth pattern.
Meanwhile, BitMEX’s Arthur Hayes forecasts a $250K Bitcoin by year’s end.
Other Bitcoin Whales Don’t Come Close
- Winklevoss Twins: ~70,000 BTC
- Tim Draper: ~30,000 BTC
- Michael Saylor (personal stash): ~17,732 BTC
Compare that to Nakamoto’s 1.096 million—there’s no contest.
