Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin Holdings Surge to $120 Billion, Making Him World’s 11th Richest

The anonymous creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, has seen his holdings surge to an estimated $120 billion following a recent price rally and increasing institutional investment. This places him as the world’s 11th wealthiest individual, just behind Google co-founder Sergey Brin. His fortune is significantly boosted by Bitcoin’s record high of nearly $112,000 before a slight decline. Bitcoin currently trades around $110,000, according to CoinMarketCap data. 5.2% of all Bitcoin supply belongs to Nakamoto’s dormant wallets, revealed by blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence. 1.96 million BTC, which represents roughly 5.2% of the total Bitcoin supply, remains untouched since 2011 when he disappeared from public view.
