How come none of the exchanges are in that list? Like Binance or Coinbase CEOs? Brain Armstrong's (Coinbase CEO) net worth is $1.3 billion and Binance's CEO Changpeng Zhao is also worth about $2 billion. This list is incorrect.

If you open the link in OP's post you will find that Winklevoss brothers and Daniel Larimer are 37 y.o. Honestly there is only Vitalik Buterin on this list who is under 30. Since what time 37 is considered as young? Anyway, this list is pretty doubtfull, there is much more ppl around the crypto world that have millions worth of BTC and altcoins.

Seems like this list showing only "well known" persons in the crypto sphere... really interesting to see how much millionaire were born through cryptos... and i totally agree, this list is doubtfull. there are many many more much younger than the winklevoss twins...

I think the list is correct because it stated youngest crypto billionaire and not just the entire cryptocurrency billionaire so the binance CEO is above the age of the listed billionaire.

There are not many people in the world that have been rich in the age of 37.
In the attempts of being a millionaire 37 is considered a young age. Buterin is just a miracle as he managed to make it in 25 years old.

How you not know the Wiklevoss twins?  ;D

Most of the list have been involved in bitcoin early and Vitalik is well know as the creator of Ethereum so I'm not surprised that at a young age these boys have accomplished a lot.

And it's good to have deep pockets, like the twins while others work their ass off to make lots of money out of this crypto sphere.

I guess it is not just the crypto millionaires in the bitcoin world. There are so many people who are using bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. I guess they are just in silence. Observing. Those people are the known billionaires, right? I hope there will be more reveal crypto billionaires this year.

50 cent accepted bitcoins for one of his albums but he sold them off almost immediately, he is not a millionaire from crypto but he is very wealthy from his rap career.

Yes, and most of the these personalities have invested into cryptocurrency what they've earned from their career. This way 50 cent seems to be get added to the list of crypto millionaires. Same as the millionaires count lot of users got to be rich through crypto which is true and one such example I've seen in my real life is my friend.

I wouldn't call that outdated, but not well informed. You don't know the Winklevoss twins? They held a lot of BTC long before the launch of ETH in 2015.

I wouldn't take all the money in the world to look like that lilttle faggot Vitalik.

You'd be surprised what money can do. If he spent just 10k, which is like daily pocket money to him, on a bodybuilding coach, a healthy diet, get some sun and some sleep, buy some not so nerdy clothes, he'd look much better in no time. Maybe he just doesn't want it?

Yes, that's what happened.

He accepted payment for his album through bitcoin and its like nothing to him before. Well, I think his feeling by that time is like this 'just take my album and pay me with anything'.

Just wondering though. With all the millionnaires bitcoin and crypto has produced, can we really account for the names of the actual top 100? I mean there could be some who chose not to disclose their identities for personal and security purposes right?

Sure, there definitely will be a lot of unkown names. But i find it interesting anyways to read some pubilic success-stories where crypto let to huge wealth..

Butterin, Jihan, Vinkelvoss and Armstrong were the only familiar names to me. Guess I've not been paying attention to the cryptoscene.

Well, lucky them, for us it's still a struggle up.


He accepted payment for his album through bitcoin and its like nothing to him before. Well, I think his feeling by that time is like this 'just take my album and pay me with anything'.

I was wondering if there were other artists out there who did the same years ago. I think it's more likely with indie artists. Imagine if they just got a hundred or so and kept it. That should be enough to retire to a tropical paradise now.

Even with the fact that this ranking of cryptocurrency millionaire are base on individuals and not group or institution the name of binance still come out on the list with ZHAO from binance in among the list of the millionaires. Even at this there are still other individuals who own cryptocurrency worth millions bit did not make the list die to the privacy nature of crypto.
