Title: Net worths if Bitcoin reaches $100,000
Post by: CristianOff on March 22, 2020, 02:38:17 PM
The richest bitcoin holders (excluding companies so just individuals) if bitcoin reaches $100,000


Name                        Bitcoin Holding                       Net worth          Rank on the world's richest list (22 March 2020)
_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________

Satoshi Nakamoto       980,000                                $98 Billion           #2
 
Winklevoss Twins        176,000                                $17.6 Billion         #49

Roger Ver                    50,000                                 $5 Billion              #333 - 348

Barry Silbert                48,000                                 $4.8 Billion           #357 - 370

Anthony Gallippi           34,000                                 $3.4 Billion           #568 - 595

Tim Draper                  30,000                                 $3 Billion              #674 - 706

Charlie Shrem              20,000                                 $2 Billion              #1051 - 1121



The biggest owner holds just 4.9% of the total supply. Compared to company shares where the
founder owns 10-20+ %, Bitcoin is very decentralised in wealth distribution.


What would be your net worth if bitcoin reaches $100,000?

U kidding me right? i even sell it already when it going back to 20k like 2017, i dont have any expectations about how rich am i if btc worth of 100,000 USD.
Btw, this thread seems good if moved to speculation.

Take a little breath from corona related threads, for the past we days almost everything related to corona spread and price crash.

My net worth will turns into few hundred grands if bitcoin reaches 100 grand per bitcoin.

CZ is missing from the list. And many other known crypto rich guys (https://coincodex.com/article/7159/the-richest-people-in-crypto-and-blockchain/) are missing from the list. I am convinced that they've also invested consistent funds into Bitcoin.

It is an educated guess that Satoshi holds 1 million coins, and many people think he actually holds far fewer than that. Still, if his coins never move, does it really matter how much he holds?

Some friendly advice - it is not wise to reveal how much bitcoin you are holding on a public forum. It brings you no benefit, and could possibly make you an attractive target for hackers or scammers.

Yes this thread is out of the corona virus syndrome and nice to have a new air. We are not likely to see $100,000 in a haste or it might not come at all unless fiat goes off. But the same as said, hodlers or whales will really be big if this happens.

It won't be much, but I think the time that bitcoin will go from 100k is still too far, plus if people where to convert their holdings into dollars then it will affect bitcoin so much.

I'm one of the people,who think that Bitcoin will NEVER reach 100,000 USD.Nobody would let this happen.
The governments and central banks,the corporations,hedge funds and banks,mainstream media,the altcoin develoeprs and enemies of Bitcoin Core-Like Roger Ver and Craig "faketoshi" Wright,even the Bitcoin Core HODLers,who will start selling at 15-20K USD.
It's good to stop with the coronapanic forum posts and fantasize a little bit about the bright future of Bitcoin (and the crypto whales),but too much fantasizing isn't good for anyone.
How can you prove that the people in that list (except Satoshi) have those bitcoins?

That would be a very tiny amount in regard to the whale I would still make it top 100 richest people in our country. I have seen a lot of ups and downs of my portfolio because of the altcoin. Now I'm not holding a big amount but I'm happy with whatever I have.
How come you have concluded Satoshi and Roger as two people  :D Isn't he claiming to be the Faketoshi for a long time  ;D

Roger does not claim to be Satoshi (as far as I know), you mix it with his friend Craig Wright - Roger is more marked as Judas of Bitcoin (https://cdn-images.threadless.com/threadless-media/artist_shops/shops/HODL/products/480643/shirt-1522036663-0990a07df929e9a29a4a1d8ea792fd6b.png?v=3&d=eyJvbmx5X21ldGEiOiBmYWxzZSwgImZvcmNlIjogZmFsc2UsICJvcHMiOiBbWyJ0cmltIiwgW2ZhbHNlLCBmYWxzZV0sIHt9XSwgWyJyZXNpemUiLCBbXSwgeyJ3aWR0aCI6IDk5Ni4wLCAiYWxsb3dfdXAiOiBmYWxzZSwgImhlaWdodCI6IDk5Ni4wfV0sIFsiY2FudmFzX2NlbnRlcmVkIiwgWzEyMDAsIDEyMDBdLCB7ImJhY2tncm91bmQiOiAiZmZmZmZmIn1dLCBbInJlc2l6ZSIsIFs4MDBdLCB7fV0sIFsiY2FudmFzX2NlbnRlcmVkIiwgWzgwMCwgODAwLCAiI2ZmZmZmZiJdLCB7fV0sIFsiZW5jb2RlIiwgWyJqcGciLCA4NV0sIHt9XV19)  ;)

Regarding Roger, we know he is switch to BCH long time ago, though he may be playing a double game, i don't think it has that much BTC. Tim Draper is bought between 30 000 - 40 000 BTC back in 2014, but it seems that he is invested those coins shortly after purchase. Winklevoss Twins are the most famous public figures who have such a large amount, but there may be those who are completely unknown to the public.

I think even with the $100k price tag, there would be very few millionaires in this forum - most are lucky if they manage to get even 1 BTC :)

I don't know what do others eat when they assume the value of bitcoin reaching a $100K range, like are you guys drunk or something? coz there is no way it would happen. Just think of what happened last 2017, it could have done so much to the price of bitcoin but it was cut until it reaches $20K something then stayed long again at $10K to $9K range, so Imagine if the rally starts now and we reach at $17K haha. We have lots of cry baby in here from which I can tell that have lost on their way and bought at $10K last january. Yet, we cannot tell to stop people from having panic with the coronavirus as it gets severe every day, but it was a good news today that I heard we already have a 100,000 of recovered patients.

His fortune is long gone, though I guess it's in his interests for all of us to believe that. If I remember rightly there's still a scam accusation open against him on here for not returning the proceeds of a Casascius sale.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=817069.360

I wouldn't trust any publicly known amounts unless they're confirmed on a regular basis. Circumstances can change very fast and I still see figures thrown around based on guesses from 6-7 years ago.

Nah, most people wouldn't believe bitcoin would worth $1000 if you know it in 2010. So I'd let them dream.

I think even with the $100k price tag, there would be very few millionaires in this forum - most are lucky if they manage to get even 1 BTC :)
Even with 1 BTC it's already a fortune in some places. I'd be more than happy to save it for years.

Its amazing to see these numbers man. I am surprised like anything looking at those net worth.  :o

Mind blow! Its more than 1 trillion dollar held by few people together. Just imagine how badly they can erupt the economy if they start selling it.

But one question ! If any day they think of throwing all the coins in the market then would there be chance all of it will get buy orders ?

Will there be any person making buy orders for the same?

Also, i would like to know if they ever do it then will you betting your money for profits ?

Post by: awik p on March 24, 2020, 06:34:41 AM
Haha $100K per bitcoin will not happen anytime soon as it needs significant technological development from now and major adoption curve but for fun, I have lost around 3 BTC already so as of now my current worth will be $150K as I'm just holding 1.5BTC as of now hope to reach 5 BTC within next year
besides that it needs support from various sectors so that it has a positive influence on the development of bitcoin. for example with mass adoption it will be easy to inflate the price of bitcoin, but unfortunately it is difficult to happen for the near future, given the virus outbreak this time is one factor

Of course, in some countries where people work for less than $50 a month, 1 BTC even at today's price is a real fortune, while in some other countries this is of course not the case because of the much higher wages and extremely high living standards. I hope that in the next decade anyone who own at least 1 BTC will be much more financially independent than is the case today.

These are just assumptions, read the previous posts to better understand what this is really about. Here for example in the case of Tim Draper we know that he buy those BTC back in 2014, but we do not know is he still hold them. But he has repeatedly said that he does not intend to sell the coin he has now, but planning to use them as a store of value and currency.

If BTC really reaches very high values in the future, and if it becomes one of the usual payment methods, why would anyone sell it at all?

Ahm excuse me, may I know who is ranked 1. I thought from the very start that Satoshi, the pioneer, holds the most number of bitcoin. Am I the only one who doesn't know about this thing ????

Hmm, actually my net worth won't be that so big assuming that btc's price spike that high. Actually, I'm just holding less than $500 at this moment because I already spent most of it due to the sudden pandemic.

Anyway, I don't bother too much with this idea because it's nearly impossible to happen right now ;D.

But is it possible that bitcoin will reach $ 100k? I have been holding bitcoin for almost 2 years but my target is to reach $ 20k again. It hasn't reached the end either because bitcoin is difficult to go up that high in significant time so I will plan to hold bitcoin longer and this knows how strong bitcoin prices will be to the front of it if it reaches $ 30k is good enough it will even shake the bustling world with more bitcoin news.
So whatever the whales are held in large numbers they can control the market but some still want to be obsessed with even higher increases.

100,000 is not enough, let's immediately assume that 1 BTC = 1 billion dollars, then there will be trillionaires and sentilionaires, this, of course, is a joke.
Anyway, personally, I personally have doubts that the information is correct, it’s reasonable not to show all my means, and keep the part only in one place known to me.

Me and my tiny stash of Bitcoin is going to be very happy if Bitcoin reaches $100,000, and as much as I want to be grateful for when that happens, I'm still hopeful that it happens only after I get the stash I desire. Of course, it this happens this year, I won't be complaining. It'd still be a nice sum to have -- only issue is I won't be liquidating much at all, just enough to make it worthwhile to have held for that long. My target is still timebound, so I'll probably be staring down the barrel of another huge retracement once 100k hits but that's okay, cause I'm here for the parabola of several times ahead, not the next one.

Assuming I'm alive to live past my retirement after a couple of decades;)

With the continues fluctuations of the global economy and businesses closing or getting bankrupt and massive quantitive easing, it's not far fetched that investors and the people will eventually look for alternatives such as Bitcoin making it possible for a $100,000 price pump.
My biggest regret if it hits $100,000 is i can't buy Bitcoin during this crisis of unemployment and corona virus outbreak.

Regarding Roger, we know he is switch to BCH long time ago, though he may be playing a double game, i don't think it has that much BTC.
I would agree with that. I think he has likely used up a lot of his BTC holdings over the years to give fake volume to BCH and to pump the price on occasion. He does say he is still holding some BTC - I wonder why when he claims its such a terrible coin. Hypocrite much?

If BTC really reaches very high values in the future, and if it becomes one of the usual payment methods, why would anyone sell it at all?
Exactly. Why would I want to sell my deflationary, uncensorable, trustless bitcoin, for some USD monopoly money which can be printed at will by the banks or the Fed whenever they feel like it? Seems like a terrible trade in my book. I'd much rather just spend my bitcoin directly with a merchant or retailers, thanks.

That's the rank in terms of all the richest people in the world, not just the richest bitcoin holders. Jeff Bezos is number one with a net worth somewhere around $110 billion.

Roger lost his reputation to most people when he not only turned his back on BTC, but with the help of some other people tried to destroy it. I will never forget when at one point the price of BTC was around $5000. At the same time the price of BCH crossed $3000 + constant spam on the BTC network with massive media support - many were very tempted and wondered if the king was falling. Of course he's one plain spoiled hypocrite, but he is not stupid to not hold some BTC for future.

That's the rank in terms of all the richest people in the world, not just the richest bitcoin holders. Jeff Bezos is number one with a net worth somewhere around $110 billion.

Bezos may be known as one of the richest men in the world, but what about families like Walton (Walmart) (https://www.investopedia.com/articles/insights/052416/top-10-wealthiest-families-world.asp) - Estimated Wealth: $190.5 billion. And what about Rothschilds or The House of Saud whose combined wealth is actually measured in the trillions of dollars. These are really real players who have actually acquired their wealth through the generations, and Bezos, Buffett, Gates are little babies for them.

A few years ago if I remember, If you had access to Bloomberg Terminal (the one worth $24k a year), there was a function which allowed you to see potential holders of stock in big companies such as
Twitter, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. You will be surprised about how big portions of american companies are owned by arabs  ;D

You are absolutely right and we will still observe how the Arabs will have influence on other countries.  In addition, one must also take into account the fact that oil is becoming cheaper all over the world, and Arabs occupy leading positions in this business, forcing other players out of the market, including Russia.  Many countries want Arab oil at cheap prices, even if delivery is more expensive.

All arabs I talked to don't like crypto and this sends me crazy. Not because they don't understand, simply because it doesn't do for them

I am always excited when looking at someone's wealth, it can be a trigger for me to seek money even harder. Unfortunately, the amount
of bitcoin that I have is very small, so if the price of bitcoin rises to $ 100k. Doesn't make me rich. Especially now that this is a crisis due
to the corona virus, forcing me to sell some of the bitcoin that I have. Hopefully this corona virus can end soon, so I can focus on collecting
bitcoin again.

thats good because this thread gives you motivation to strive more and to collect more bitcoins while most of us here will feel nothing because we think that those amounts are to high and will be impossible for us to achieve . being rich can also depend on the people and not on the price of bitcoin . on your last sentence i see that you sell btc regularly nowadays so that also means that you have a job outside crypto before ? and you arent selling your coins before because you still have money anyway

So whatever the whales are held in large numbers they can control the market but some still want to be obsessed with even higher increases.

It is these whales that swing the price of bitcoin in different directions, providing themselves with additional profit. And for them, the current price of BTC does not matter. Although I understand that the higher the market value of bitcoin, the more income they will receive, because the price fluctuations will increase.

....That's the rank in terms of all the richest people in the world, not just the richest bitcoin holders. Jeff Bezos is number one with a net worth somewhere around $110 billion.

The state of Jeff Bezos has recently increased significantly and according to Forbes on April 25 is $145 billion. https://www.forbes.com/profile/jeff-bezos/#2fc918cd1b23

there is clearly a sense of envy that they still have bitcoin which is quite significant and the above partners can still make sales and can enjoy what is obtained from bitcoin and still have deposits. of course hope there will be an increase in bitcoin to $ 100K even though it might look ambitious and no longer realistic at the expected price. at least there is a speck of hope if you still store bitcoin, not for those who do not and do not have bitcoin. like me with another colleague who can only hope and will have no effect at all. still it will not be one of the connoisseurs of bitcoin increase.

The richest bitcoin holders (excluding companies so just individuals) if bitcoin reaches $100,000


Name                        Bitcoin Holding                       Net worth          Rank on the world's richest list (22 March 2020)
_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________

Satoshi Nakamoto       980,000                                $98 Billion           #2
 
Winklevoss Twins        176,000                                $17.6 Billion         #49

Roger Ver                    50,000                                 $5 Billion              #333 - 348

Barry Silbert                48,000                                 $4.8 Billion           #357 - 370

Anthony Gallippi           34,000                                 $3.4 Billion           #568 - 595

Tim Draper                  30,000                                 $3 Billion              #674 - 706

Charlie Shrem              20,000                                 $2 Billion              #1051 - 1121



The biggest owner holds just 4.9% of the total supply. Compared to company shares where the
founder owns 10-20+ %, Bitcoin is very decentralised in wealth distribution.


What would be your net worth if bitcoin reaches $100,000?
All the others here still has access to their private keys and they can still touch their shares but the one who has the most cannot be found and there's no guaranty that he still has access to those number of Bitcoin, still useless for the number one holder even if the price goes to number $500 k, it's like a memento for us to look.

So whatever the whales are held in large numbers they can control the market but some still want to be obsessed with even higher increases.

It is these whales that swing the price of bitcoin in different directions, providing themselves with additional profit. And for them, the current price of BTC does not matter. Although I understand that the higher the market value of bitcoin, the more income they will receive, because the price fluctuations will increase.
Well we don't really know that stuff specifically, but if it turns out that whales are doing these things then we don't have to care at them at all since that is what they need to do, as if, if you're one of them you won't do the same would not you? What you need to care the most is yourself, the whole network is decentralized don't assume things like this, the market will move because of the speculation not just because of the whales, the ocean is too big for the whales.


....That's the rank in terms of all the richest people in the world, not just the richest bitcoin holders. Jeff Bezos is number one with a net worth somewhere around $110 billion.

The state of Jeff Bezos has recently increased significantly and according to Forbes on April 25 is $145 billion. https://www.forbes.com/profile/jeff-bezos/#2fc918cd1b23
Rich getting richer, and us getting smarter don't let the money fool your eyes. Jeff Bezos is really a fan of crypto, he knows what to do with it.

It is an educated guess that Satoshi holds 1 million coins, and many people think he actually holds far fewer than that. Still, if his coins never move, does it really matter how much he holds?
Apart from the educated guess of known wallets Satoshi might have carried on mining for several years and have accumulated a lot of coins which are not known to the general public and my guess is that he is not moving the known wallets because he mined enough coins for him to enjoy his retirement.

I dont think that this numbers could be possible in current world situation
If the price of bitcoin rises to those levels then why not. It is a realistic possibility it might rise to those levels in the next ten years considering that the price rose to $20k just as a speculative market and if there is a considerable development in bitcoin then we will see the rice touching those levels easily.

I have to tell the truth to members of the forum about bitcoin and whales.  $ 100k is a huge amount compared to what bitcoin can help society.  High-value things will be appreciated, although bitcoin will become increasingly scarce but its value will increase day by day.  this is a type of whale trading tool to manipulate and which terrorists deal with every day.  Such things will not be trusted by everyone and the equivalent of $ 100k will never be.

When it reaches 100k, it will take a lot of money to keep it there as well, think of the people who sold 34k bitcoins (the mt.gox trustee) think about what would happen if someone did something like that when price is 100k, that would mean we would have to buy 3.5 billion dollars worth of bitcoin just to keep the price there, compared to right now just 240 million dollars, there is a 3.25 billion dollars difference between keeping the prices like that when a big sale happens.

If you think that when price goes up there won't be a huge sale, you are kidding yourself, there is no way people would keep on buying without any of the big sales, it happens even today with these prices, so it will happen a lot more when price reaches to that point, and I do not see us spending that much to keep the price high.

Can not imagine if the price of 1BTC is worth $100k, because if that happens, of course there will be many rich people in the world who hold bitcoin. Imagine when you only had 0.1BTC I think it was very good for ordinary people to get rich quick because of the skyrocketing price of bitcoin.

In the list you give, I think it will be missing if you do not mention CZ, who is the owner of the Binance exchange. This is the exchange with the largest number of daily cryptocurrency traders in the world. And CZ has many great ways to attract more traders to his trading platform. Taking a specific example, in 2019 he created a new trend for the cryptocurrency world, the IEO form. And that gave him a huge amount of money. This year, he acquired CMC and he will launch Forex trading pairs on Binance. Obviously, his ambition is extremely large and he is a very smart person when he understands the needs of traders.

Interesting, bitcoin to reach $100,000 is likely to happen, and that will bring satoshi to the number 2 spot.. but I think we need to support bitcoin more, we need our founder to get into the top, currently per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World%27s_Billionaires...

the richest man in the world has $113 billion... so if Bitcoin will reach $150k or $200k, then we will get satoshi to the number 1 spot.

That's a good mission, right?

$ 100,000 is too much in my opinion to predict at this time, it's true that the price of Bitcoin can go up after halving,
but remember you can get people exposed to FOMO and eventually people buy at high prices, and end up stuck for a long time

Everyone would be very happy with this if it happens or even if it reaches 50% of the said value all will be happy because there is definitely a certain trigger point after which it will fall the curve and we are not sure at this time. Like last time around 18- 19k it has started to fall, and we know how badly it has fallen from that though it will rise back again to those levels in coming time.

Interesting table of data, I must say.  I was thinking briefly about the Winklevoss twins a few weeks ago, wondering if they were still into bitcoin and idly wondering how much they owned--and assuming this data is correct, wow.  That's a lot. 

Those folks on the list probably want bitcoin to skyrocket, but usually individuals with wealth like they seem to have aren't in a rush.  Usually it's the small-time speculator looking to make a profit on quick trades that's more interested in the day-to-day (and sometimes minute-to-minute fluctuations in bitcoin's price).

What would be your net worth if bitcoin reaches $100,000?
I'm not a wealthy man now, and I still wouldn't be if bitcoin hit that mark.  I'm optimistic that it will get there eventually, but I assume it's going to be a few more years.

OP just asked your worth value IF only reaches that value so don't think it is going to happen in real soon even after the halving I highly doubt that we will reach the new all time high for bitcoin just for a year or two.

If bitcoin reaches $100K then I can retire on that day itself and just chill all around the world.

It was really an optimistic point of view to think of Bitcoin's price to reach already $100,000 even at times like this that we are still facing the pandemic. Well, it is good to see that some people are still having high hopes towards the fate and future of crypto despite of the fact that we are still having a world crisis as of the moment. It gives high hope that the OP is got to think of Bitcoin reaching $100,000 even the price is at $7,602 which is still a way too far from expected price. It is really interesting to know the net worths of those people who holds the largest number of Bitcoin once the price reaches the expected rate by the OP.

Where you got this info? I read he come broke out of prison. He earned 20000 Bitcoin in last few years promoting shitcoin ICOs?


He was a total scammer?
This is my first time to encounter his name but now I knew how became millionaire because of crypto.

If ever bitcoin reaches 100k usd then I believe that those who lose during 2017 bull run season will have a champagne party to all. But the possibility to increase in that number is too low because of pandemic.


He was not a scammer. He had one exchange in 2013 and went to prison because of exchanging USD for Bitcoins to those that traded on Silk road. In one interview he said that he got out prison totally broke and start from scratch. I dont know when was that maybe at start of 2017. Or in 2016. At that time I saw him on million ICOs as adviser. But to earn 20000 BTC out of that "advising" seems a bit strange to me.

But to earn 20000 BTC out of that "advising" seems a bit strange to me.


I spoke with so many advisors from ICOBench. I can tell you the fees and I can confirm that there is a high chance it may not come
from advising but probably other sources of income that are not public.

Most advisors will ask for €15,000 down fee + part of the token supply (range from 0.01% to 2%) + 0.5% - 2% of the ICO raised funds

Some projects also pay a fee for advisors on icobench to give good rating and as you may think, that's unethical and not public. That fee
can be anywhere between €10,000 and €100,000 in the case of Charlie Shrem.

Cindicator is one of the ICOs he participated in (https://icobench.com/ico/cindicator)  and if we assume he got 1% of token supply because
of his high profile, and assuming he also #HODL tokens until the price was pumped, he had 1% of a market cap of $370,000,000 or $3,700,000
Maybe he also took 1% of $10,000,000 (ICO funds) or $100k

Viberate (VIB) can be another 1% of $92,000,000 = $920,000. Probably or who knows.


The idea is that those advising projects have expanded his borders to know more people. He joined Jaxx as a director of business and this can mean
potential shares in the company. He was involved in DASH and this is for sure another source of income.  Also the Winklevoss twins sued him for holding
their crypto assets or something (WTF).

I can too, with our current dollar exchange and the amount of Bitcoin, however small, I'm holding I will be richer in our part of the world but not rich in a first world country, people who are likely to benefit the most are those coming from a third world country, that is the reason we are active in bounty campaign we want to benefit when Bitcoin reaches that level.

We are not really sure about that, but if it does go up, my net worth will be around that same range. I don’t know what you mean by 'bitcoin is decentralized in distribution of wealth'. From what I know, you don’t get more than what you invest unless you’re able to hold for long and the price goes up.

All these people you have mentioned here, apart from Satoshi Nakamoto who I don’t know his real life status, are all millionaires and billionaires already in real life. So I don’t expect anything less from them when it comes to this community. I am not trying to say that people can’t get rich here, but it doesn’t work as many think, it takes time and patience. The early investors were more lucky, the few of them that were able to hold till the bull run.

Over a long period of time 5-20 years the price of Bitcoin is going to be astronomical. And the Hodlers are the ones who will benefit the most.

It pretty simple, Satoshi created the most secure (and only) decentralized method to store money. Simple supply and demand principles dictate that the price will go up. People are just hearing about Bitcoin right now and its actually in its infant stage believe it or not. Can you imagine when mainstearm adoption occurs?

Right now jeff Bezos could buy all the BTC and double the price. What about other billionaires? With countries printing money and causing inflation people will be turning to Bitcoin and gold. They are similar stores of value.

This is not a company, this is a whole community man, and someone who is holding up to 4.9%? Damn! I’d say that’s a lot of money that they are holding. Imagine how many people that are into Bitcoin and compare them to this cryptocurrency billionaires and millionaires, you will come to realize that they are holding much of what’s in the community.

For me I don’t have much in Bitcoin right now, just a few thousands, and if the price should increase to the amount you have said, I will have around $20,000 or so.

Bitcoin will not be allowed to rise to such a level. No prerequisites are visible for this. I would say that even a level of 20,000 will already be pretty good. And the same level will have a lot of pressure because of people who bought at this price on top of the price, which was the 20,000.

I don't know how accurate this data is. Recently there were rumors that Roger Ver had sold some of his coins. The same was said about the Winklevii sometime back. We don't know accurate information regarding the holding for any of them. Even Satoshi Nakamoto may be holding more coins than given here. Or there is even a chance that he is holding none (in case the private keys are lost).

The amount of Satoshi Nakamoto is confirmed? Afaik, it's a speculation. Well, he may own such a decent amount and if bitcoin keeps growing above $100k, someday we will find him in the top richest man.
Wondering how Roger is still holding such a big amount of BTC.
I am not a big whale into this ground nor I will be, however, if BTC reaches such big price, I would afford to purchase my dream car someday.

Mine wouldn't really change too much because I would definitely sell before we reach there easily. The moment price reaches to 20k I would be selling everything I have easily. However if we assume how much we would have if we do not sell until that moment, saying how much I would own if I tell tell you that will mean that I will tell you how much bitcoin I have. That is literally why I do not really support saying how much I would own in that case because that would be telling how much I have right now.

However I can tell you that I do not have 1 bitcoin. Which tells you I will not have 100k, and that is why I will not I have too much, even if I do not really have too much to change everyone's life, I think it would basically be better for me in the long term.

We are also not sure about bitcoin reaching $20K right? So it is not impossible to reach such high value too, the realistic value of course. But I don't see we are going to stay at that range, let's say it reaches $30K, it would not be always $30K like everyone's just holding it. At that time the bitcoin's value will be very unstable, economists will pop up like troll and will call it a huge bubble ( AGAIN ) I hope I'm right with bitcoin that it is creating a history right now with the world events that is happening.

All these people you have mentioned here, apart from Satoshi Nakamoto who I don’t know his real life status, are all millionaires and billionaires already in real life.
