Do u know someone who owns 1000 Bitcoin or more?

Someone who holds such an amount is very rich in digital currency.

Do u know someone like that?

~CfA~

just search blockchain.info for "famous addresses" there are a lot of them there that have more than 1000BTC most of them are services, gambling sites (casinos), bitcoin exchanges, online wallets, most important of all Mining farms and many more that have this kind of bitcoin.

why are you looking for them anyways?

I don't have a specific reason, I just wanna know how ppl perceive the whales.

Do any of us know any of the BTC-whales ? :)

~CfA~

Seems spying !

Quite stumbling question.

Even if anyone knows anyone having that much BTC.

Why will he expose him ?

even

how will you believe that if I say I have 2500 BTC ?

if you are looking for people apart from those known addresses that i mentioned in my above comment then i have to say those people (investors that are whales) are not going to reveal their identity for many reasons like taxes, hacks or even robbers can physically attack them knowing they own more than $650,000

Well just entertainment, I dont have that much BTC.
But its anonymous currency as Only person individually only know how much BTC he have other wise if we know his address we can check it on explore.

But person must accept that he own that address.

Thats all.

There is a guy that hacked one of the most popular (if not the #1) dice bet websites, he got over 2kBTC. I don't think anyone knows how he did it (maybe the admins only), but he got to cashout before he got banned. Then he entered this site with another name, hacked it again and simply got all the bankroll of the website. That was an insane thing to watch, you could just see 10BTC bets one after another. His total wager was of about 10kBTC, if I remember correctly. He didn't get caught, but right now he's probably enjoying a beer in his $500k Hollywood home lol.

Personally, NO. But on anonymous person's bitcoin addresses there are people holding 1000 BTC or more. I see them while exploring but of course we don't have idea who they are. Oh I may add those bitcoin which was confiscated by Australian court :)

I do not know exactly who had so much money. but I think he is a founder / developer in the world bitcoin. perhaps he is the creator of bitcoin (satoshi), may be the owner of the exchange. which clearly he is not an ordinary person like me.

I have over 5000BTC
Come at me bruh ;D

do you seriously have 5000 BTC?

If it is true then you are one of the luckiest people in the world. I hope you can make giveway to share a bit of bitcoin you have.  ;D ;D

Simple answer to a simple question - No I don't know anybody who has 1000 bitcoin. 

Wow amazing you are a real billionare.
But since i started i do not get whole bitcoin but i think i will achieved 1btc soon because i only get bitcoin in signature campaign and i do not ever invest real money in bitcoin.
And i do not know who have already 1000bitcoin.

I think that you don't have 2500 BTC because if you had you woudn't bothered joining yobit signature campaign. OP i voted for No as i really don't know anyone owning 1000 BTC, those who have are probably mostly exchange owners.

Nope, don't know anybody with such an amount of coins.

Most people I know hold somewhere between 1 and 30 coins at most. They joined late at the party but made some profits on ether and the likes.

If someone have 1000 BTC, so definitely he is not here in bitcointalk, because he never need to do posts just like we are doing. But on the other hand, may be campaign owners have this amount, and in service section most of the members are giving the jobs, they have a hard wallets. But one thing is clear that i have a lot of time spend here in this campaign but i never seen a single person who has this amount.

Yeah I agree to what you say that if a person holds that amount of bitcoin is very rich but I think that person has a site where he puts that bitcoin like in gambling site. And I'm sure that if a person holds that many bitcoin will have an account that is very secure to hackers.

Wow it's impressive how some individuals/organisations control so much money, but also how they trust bitcoin for such amounts. If I had this much money, I would probably store it in banks (even if they are less safe than bitcoins, I would be sure that I would not lose them because of a hack or a error of mine)

Theymos

At least the forum has more than 1000 BTC in reserves.

The cost of the new forum alone was more than 1M

Yeah i actually know many people who had like +1k bitcoins.
It was just long time ago,when 1k bitcoins was like 100$ so it wasn't anything special back then right?

I know at least two folks personally who almost certainly are in 4 digits. They are also the guys who introduced me to BTC. :)

Early adopters ...
Are they living a kings life now ? They probably have enough to buy a big mansion with a swimming pool (depending on the country they are living in) with all those bitcoins.

well thats still a lot of money even if the price of the bitcoin is 1 hundred dollars each as it would make a tenth of a million, i dont know any of such people to be honest

No, I do not.
From the people that I know I am the one who has most bitcoins and I don''t have anywhere near 1000btc

I would not say that 100 $ is a lot of money,at least not for me and most people using bitcoin's.
100$ currently is only about 0,15,most of people earn this amount daily ;P

"when 1k bitcoins was like 100$" means that 1 price of one bitcoin was 0.10$
So it was just 100$ not tenth of a million.

1000 bitcoin more than 640000 USD and when i will convert it to my local currency it becomes 640000000 rupees. that is some thing unbelievable. i didt see some one having so many many many bitcoin. by the way i am expecting my self to have more than 1000 bitocins in future.

Good luck bru, not a lot of people will ever achieve that feat, because it takes a whole bunch of money to accomplish that, and it takes some balls to invest that amount of money into something like

Bitcoin. I do not know a single person who owns 1000 Bitcoins, but I know the CEO of a company that owns 2000+ Bitcoins collectively. I hope this is not an attempt the target people to reveal the

whales in Bitcoin...  ???

Man it is awesome to see that so many are still holding huge bitcoins, it may be that some are very old investors but it is great for them that they are also still holding and they are going to reap the benefit now.

I know the man this user who has more than 1000 Bitcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=772666
And it is the proof he has more than 1000 bitcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1484009.40

You don't know him in person.
I don't know anybody owns more than 1000 coins.

i know that there is satoshi nakamoto there holding much more than that, dont know any other people to be honest

Probably Mr. Satoshi knows who owns 1000 BTC single handedly. 1000 BTC means 650000 USD and that comes to 4 billion in my local currency. So someone who owns that much, they will never announce it on public.

I wish my best friend owns such amount so that I can have some profit. LOL!!

Just have someone sign a message from an address saying that you own 2500 BTC. If it's verified, then the signer owns the BTC(except if he stole the private keys, which is hard to prove.)

I dont know anyone like this right now.
But i knew a guy,that one year ago had about 1,5k bitcoin if im not wrong,he was into bitcoin trading,
but he stopped after bitcoin have risen so much,because he expected it to fall and well... just lost a lot :P

I do not know anyone with even half of that amount, but there will be some people who own that much but I don't think they'll be exposing it or bragging much about it. As it is quite a sensitive information.

No i don't even know anyone who owns 50 btc atm and the few people i knew who owned a decent amount of bitcoins got rid of them last month with the price increase and made a very good profit.

Personally, no. Online, however, still no.

We can search for addresses with more than 1000BTC value but most of them would be company-owned.

I do not know if there is an individual already have 1000 bitcoin.
I think if there is a job that offering bitcoin as mode of payment i think it is very easy to get that 1000 bitcoin.

Those people are mostly early adopters and they keep things to themselves. You would rarely see any of them splashing information around about their holdings. The same goes for any other type of wealth. If you owned 1000 gold bars, you would not go around telling people that, because you will become a target.

I do know a guy that own 2000 gold coins, but he only told me because we know each other from childhood. ^smile^

I don't know anyone with that amount of coins,  in fact the only person i know that owns more than dust amount s is me.  These days i think whales that hold crazy amounts like 1000 bitcoins are getting rarer and rarer which can only be a good thing for distribution.

yes i heard some investors in Btcjam who have 1000+ btc and they invest huge amounts . Dont know how they have so much amount of bitcoins.
i would be lucky if i have even 10% of that

Is the new forum finished yet

Well someone holding 1000 Bitcoin or more are rare.  ;D I do know someone holding amount that big it's just that I don't like his personality since he started bitcoin well he runs a gambling site he used to be good to others but know he always trashtalk in our groupchat like he's a boss or something. So I think owning that big amount of bitcoin can get someone to be so arrogant.

Satoshi :D is a valid reply?

Look for addresses with > 1000 BTC that haven't been active in a while (several years). Those addresses are likely to be individually owned. Company owned addresses usually have coins flowing in and out.

I don't know what you mean by know, if you mean know as in personally known as a friend, then I don't know anyone, but in this forum I think there are a couple of people with 4 figures. I think the user rpietila owns 1000 or more than that. He is rich and owns a castle.

If i had a friend with 1000BTC..either he should not be talking to me right now or he would also have helped me to have some Btc in my wallet.

satoshi currently owning thousands of bitcoin,but even it's not being clarificated yet but seems satoshi is the original owner

thats true, it is a little bit scary for me to be honest because i think that it would be a disaster if satoshi started selling bitcoins, though i cannot do anything about it i guess

only people that i can think of having 1000 bitcoins and more are those who were active in the early days of bitcoin like satoshi himself, hal finey, and many early adopters who gathered bitcoin in the early days. and also the new people like big services although those coins aren't really theirs but it belongs to their users.


New forum software (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=167.0)
i hope no big changes occur to the looks of the forum whenever it is released because i actually like the simplicity and speed.

but those wallets with the money are pretty much not usable in my opinion, i think that the coins in them will never be spent and i think that we will make some good money as the price is going to grow, i dont know anyone with 1000 bitcoins

I never see these before. it's rarely to find someone with huge of the amount. but yesterday I find the people is gamblers with huge of the amount. total for his amount is 328 btc. I know that from chatting with him in the chatbox.

Companies that accepts bitcoin like gambling sites and exchanges are sue to have that amount,there are individual who holds that amount but they are early investors and also people who are rich can have these amount..

If you ask million of bitcoin there are very few..

Do you have checked the link?  there are proof who be confirmed by two people who has green trust and their service is trusted, you can check it, there are not bad review. And it is not about knowing with him in person but it is about the proof.

Satoshi prolly have a shitload of BTC , well we all know him , and for sure he was mining bitcoin from day 1  ;D

i was asking to all of my friends does them ever have more than 1000 bitcoin and their answers is no
even though i saw several address have over than 1000 btc but I do not know who it belongs

Don't know anyone with that much bitcoins I guess that is a good thing because I think it would make me somehow famous because of that, I hope I will have a thousand bitcoins in the near future

I personally don't know anybody who owns 1000 BTCitcoin but know about some address who have more than 1000+ there, this is show how trust in BTCitcoin and surely bright future belongs to these people who have very strong believe in it.

there are quite a lot of people with that amount of bitcoin mostly really early adopters  ;D  i only wish i had bought in at that stage.

Whoah, I didn't really think there are such people having so many btc.
But if this is some kind of a company then we can't realy say about a person, because we don't know how many people are working there and all that stuff

Most Bitcoin dwellers have at least once hoped to be one of the first week investors of the Bitcoin.

I've not been there at day 1.    I would have loved to, yeh!

~CfA~

Well those addresses are the true meaning of rich.

I know someone who owns around 15k bitcoins although that was few months ago. I'm not sure how many bitcoins he has now since I never heard any news from him about his bitcoins as he was interesting in investing into altcoins then.

I haven't seen anyone own that much. But I heard a guy got a lot and he did gamble with it

I think it is very little a person who has that much bitcoin. I was a little bit of doubt if individual has a large amount of it. except gambling sites or sites of exchange. maybe I'll believe it if they store 1000 BTC in their wallets. but I'm not sure anyone has 1000 BTC in their personal wallet

I dont even knoe someone who holds 10 bitcoin let alone 1000 btc.People usually have such a big amount of coins prefer to keep it secret for one or other reason

If I knew someone who had more than 1000 Bitcoin chances are I would ask them for maybe a quarter of a Bitcoin or so,considering that they would have roughly $6m in Bitcoin in their possession.

But no, I do not know anyone who has over 1000 Bitcoin, and I don't think I will ever meet one. Which is fine by me.

Will this thread be repeated in future asking do you know anyone with 21 BTC?

I do not know anyone with that amount of Bitcoin, but I'll bet they were with it from the beginning and/or started online casinos.  Also, with all this talk about the Chinese, I'm guessing a few people from China have that much Bitcoin.

These two makes me LOL. imo no one individual or group will say if they have such amount of btc and I wont believe those who will just say they have such amount until proven.

1000 btc worth approximately $ 600.000, wow it was very large amount of money. I'm not sure there are many people who have
bitcoin amount of it. although certainly wealthy people will think twice to spend $ 600K into bitcoin which has a very large investment risks

Guys can you keep a secret ?
a friend of mine that he had 1000btc , but unfortunately he gone missing...
but now i have 1000btc ! strange things happens all the time .. :D
jk

That is certainly true, but it occurs at the beginning of time they know bitcoin. now only some people who have it because they have already spent most of the bitcoin to eliminate their greed and lust

based on my original reply i want to add this..

The public bitcoin transaction log shows that Nakamoto's known addresses contain roughly one million bitcoins.[8] As of 19 June 2016, this is the equivalent of US$758 million.[9]
Source:Wikipedia

 :o :o :o :-X ;D

I do not know anybody who has 1000 or more Bitcoins, I am not even sure if there are people who have that much Bitcoin because they are going to make allot of money.
If the price is $1000 they can already make a million Dollars so I doubt that they exist but it is possible.

Of course there exist some people who have lotta Bitcoin but most whale addresses r the exchanges and the other smart players. Then there r the 0.1% who have huge wallets of Monero, Bitcoin and other crypto.

~CfA~

5000 BTC x 650 USD = 3.250.000 USD,
which is about 307 times smaller than billion.

I mean really... enable basic math pls.

im currently 0 bitcoin

Lol - this made me laugh. However, most of us have to start at 0 to go to 1. U can do it, and u will have a lot of fun if u do it in a clever way. Have fun jdacer!!!!

~CfA~

I believe there are large number of such a big volume of bitcoin holders and most of the users were the early bitcoin adopters. I too will become an user with such a huge volume of bitcoin into my wallet within 20 years.

I also no not know someone who has earned more then 1000 Bitcoin but from what I can read from the pole many people do know some people who made more then 1000 Bitcoin.
I am amazed by how people know people with that many Bitcoins.

This list http://www.bitcoinrichlist.com/top100 proves that there are less than 500 wallets that contains more than 1000 bitcoins. I bet these people are those who have invested in bitcoins from the start. They believed in bitcoin so now they are millionaires. But personally, I do not know someone or heard of someone who owns 1000 Bitcoins. Maybe there's someone in my area who has that much but don't wanna tell other people about it to prevent someone from hacking his/her account.

i think there are many bitcoin users have 1000 BTC or more because nowadays  everyone invest their money in bitcoin in big amount they hold their bitcoin for increasing price and many  people secure their money in bitcoin .

no,but I remember the times when 1 bitcoin give on faucets for free 3-5 years ago ;)

that is such a big amount and i think i have never seen a single person in my life time who  have won 1000 bitcoin. i think even i never say a person who has won more that 500 bitcoins.

I know some users with large pockets, but 1000 BTC ~ 700.000 dollar. No not of that kind of proportion. It's close to a million. Having so much money into bitcoin makes you either a real believer or someone who likes risk. A lot of risk, because it things go wrong, he/she will lose a lot of money.. and with that I mean lot's of money.

Suppose the price goes back to 350 dollar. Such a person would have lost 350k. BAM gone!

wow! what a question of yours,  everybody can say here I have 1000bitcoin or 2000 bitcoins, but the question is does the person telling truth? and If there is someone who have 1000 bitcoin do you think he/she will broadcast or announce him/her that he/she has that amount of Bitcoins, of course surely he/she will keep silent. :P

I know someone who owns that much of bitcoin. He used to be kind to others and easy to chat with when he didn't know bitcoin. Since he started earning so many bitcoin at once well he's still good but he's not that kind compared to what he used to be. Now he isn't easy to talk with because in a chat he always trashtalk even if he/she is not offended and even if he offends others he don't care not like he used to be kind and easy to talk to. Well I guess owning so much bitcoin sometimes changes personality.

No i don't know anyone personally who owns 1000+ bitcoins, if anyone did have that kinda of coins they'll never tell to anyone. ::)

Exactly if someone would be holding that high amount then he will prefer to keep it secret and will divide it into multiple wallets to minimize risks.

I think Satoshi Nakamoto holds 1000 bitcoin or more because he created this and ofcourse in the first place nakamoto introduce bitcoin as profitable in long term so i think he also save more than 1000 bitcoin for himself. And i think the dev in altcoin have 1000 bitcoin to pump or dump some altcoin :).

1000 BTC x 670 $ = 670 000 $. That is a lot of money, and personally I don't know anyone who have so much money, with bitcoins or with fiat. I agree with some people that someone who have so many coins, he would not go around and talk about it. He will instantly become target to some hackers, they just wait to catch someone with that amount of money.
But probably its not so simple with hacking this amount of coins, someone use some good wallet, and probably coins are offline.

I see someone's address handling over 1000 BTC at block chain. They are more than 10 I think. But I don't know what are those addresses. But I know somebody obtained more than 1000 BTC in their whole life. Someone also claimed to be a Millionaire just by earning Bitcoin. All of us dreamed about it,  but one thing is for sure, we are doing this for our dreams. Always earn earn earn and use it on purpose. That's why bitcoin created.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a bitcoin millionaire acording to the rumors. ;D

He owns 1000 times more than 1000 bitcoins, i guess. ???

To answer your question-No, i don`t know anyone that owns 1000 btc.

no i am really sorry i personally do not know such a person who owns 1000 bitcoin or more. i think that is such a big amount of bitcoin i presently can only think about this. but hope a time will come when i will be the owner of 1000 bitcoins.

yeah though the problem is that we dont know if the creator of bitcoin is still alive, also in my opinion there are more people who have that much bitcoins i just dont know them

I too personally don't know anyone who owns 1000 bitcoin. And probably it wouldn't be easy to know that as bitcoins are anonymous. People wouldn't really tell anyone about how much they own.

Yeah no one wants to risk their money by declaring that they hold such a huge number of  coins and I don't think that anyone would be holding that huge  amount of  coins.

that satoshidice site got $600m receive money on there wallet that is a big amount of money you can have but the remaining balance of it on has $2k . Anyways if Nakamoto got 1m BTC he will just sit around on his couch and just exchange some spare bitcoin to pay his bills and etc.

No I didn’t know any one holding anywhere close to 1000BTC.But yes I have heard some peoples had that much amount of bitcoins.Theymos here may be he has 1000BTC but I didn’t no surely about any person like that.

I think its impossible to know people who are holding that huge amount of 1k bitcoin or more..
But i think those are owner of blockchain gamlbing casinos or affiliate manager and owners..
This is i think that can hold that large amount of bitcoin..

I don't know anyone personally who owns that amount of Bitcoins, but I do know some people online who do.
Like other people have said before, pretty much every large casino has an amount equal or larger than that.

no i do not know about such person who have more that 1000 bitcoin. i think that is a very very big amount and there will be few people who will have that amount of bitcoin.

among My relative or friends or other person near to me, I will say no I do not know or maybe there will be no any person related to me who will have 1000 bitcoins. For them that amount is much more bigger.

Don't know for what you need such information. Maybe only curiosity. But I think there is such people who made money in the beginning of Bitcoin history. If to talk about me I don't know any.
