Title: Does anyone think these can be overtaken?
Post by: rockyshala on August 21, 2017, 01:39:34 PM
I was just looking at the top 10 trading profits of all time (https://101options.com/10-biggest-trading-profits-time/ (https://101options.com/10-biggest-trading-profits-time/)) and I was thinking... Surely the way Crypto is going, it won't be long until these will be over taken?  ??? ???

I'm sure that they have already been overtaken, but cryptocurrency holders tend to be quiet about it.

For example, a single person bought 30,000 BTC in one of the Silk Road auctions for about $19 million. Another bought 24,000 BTC and paid about $10 million. Assuming they didn't sell them, their bitcoins are worth more than $100 million.

Several early bitcoin investors have probably gained more than $100 million by buying 1000's of bitcoins when they were worth less than $1.

Finally, Satoshi's bitcoin stash is easily worth more than $1 billion.
