Satoshi Nakamoto is 247th Richest Person in The World

[probittrader]

Woow how come only 247 i thought he is already in top 10.
But thats also a good news and that is.
There is still huge ammount of wealth we have in the world and if its liquidated in bitcoin .
Bitcoins price will reach the moon.

[criz2fer]

Wrong, Satoshi might not even have access to those coins and even if he had, then those coins will be worth a lot less. If he
started to sell any of those coins, then the price of bitcoins will plummet and the total amount will be worth a lot less. You cannot be one of the richest people in the world and not be able to spend a cent of that wealth.

Think about it. ^smile^

Right. If those coins move at all, people will know that Bitcoin is not as stable as it is. Satoshi's holdings are cruicial to stay in place because if they don't, all hell will break loose. It's tough to place Satoshi on that list because we don't even know if he's a single person/dead or alive/ anything about him.

Even the first people here in the forum I think don't hold that much because they couldn't also predict what would really happen to bitcoin way back then because of uncertainty. I think they have earned a lot but not to be a top richest person in the world. Maybe the investors or a manager that holds or earn alot of bitcoin and not spending it until now will be a billionaire I think.

And we don't even know if Satoshi Nakamoto is a person or a group of programmers, We don't know if how many coins he really has.

[Nerman]

That report is inaccurate. First they really need to know who Satoshi Nakamoto is. We do not know if it is a person, a group of programmers/hackers, or a group of companies. Some conspiracy theorist are pointing to C.I.A. as the creator of bitcoin. Also assuming that Satoshi Nakamoto is a real living person, how would they know that he did not spend his Bitcoin. We may never know who is the real inventor of Bitcoin but thanks to him we have  an excellent currency that government cannot control.

[Cazemiro]

I hope that Satoshi never sell his 05% of all BTC! Because he can change the price like a storm. The price will increase and Satoshi will be at top 10 list!

[crypto_Butterfly]

Well he will be the richest without any doubts if the price keep going up and up. It will be and satoshi will be the richest. I wonder if he still holds his bitcoins or not?

[Cyberczar]

Hahaha this is a silly notion as...

...Dead people cannot be on today's rich list. Satoshi died a few years ago.

But guarantee you Satoshi was incredibly proud even a few years ago to see Bitcoin reach escape velocity to the point where there was, and will never be a central point of failure. It would live on, be immutable, open, and retain integrity. Even back then, Satoshi knew what that meant...years into the future.

How do you know Satoshi is dead? That he hasn't withdrawn from his wallet shouldn't make you make inferences that isn't proven.

I do not fully believe in this report, it could just be a report that is made to enliven the news about satoshi, now what I believe today, satoshi may have spent half of its bitcoin because no one realizes that bitcoin will be this expensive . and really thanks to satoshi we can have a great income

[ZaynDale]

If Bitcoin will continue to rise up to $100K then maybe he will then belong the Top 10 richest Man. If only he owned all the coins then He is the richest Man on earth.

[Sachinist]

I'm sufficiently convinced the pseudonym belongs to a group of people rather than 1 person.

[Prince8]

if he is alive, he will never use the money anyway

[-Sinner-]

as far as we know, satoshi nakamoto could be dead, and all his bitcoin lost and out of circulation..

[TheGreatPython]

Thanks to this genius innovator and his excellent innovation. If Satoshi is alive today then he might happy to see this news that he is not 247th richest person in the world,

It's fun to quote this old thread and a recent news about the same,

if based on 1m bitcoins, means he/they are worth half billion right now.

Will Satoshi Nakamoto ever become the world's richest person?

whats going to happen?

I sure hope not. He once said on the forums something to the effect of "lost coins are a donation to everyone else" so I'm hoping that he considers those coins lost and won't ever tap them.

I do too, but not sure whether he considers his lost.

* Bitcoin’s latest record high makes Satoshi Nakamoto the 247th richest person in the world.

What's your opinion about this? Do you think that the further journey of Bitcoin would boost the Satoshi's position in this ranking?

Well as we know that bitcoin is decentralized and no one knows about bitcoin that from where it’s going to operate and who is the owner of bitcoin so same there are different stories moving around abut satoshi some are saying that satoshi is the owner for bitcoin and some are saying no it’s not true so until bitcoin will not disclose to the world so it’s very hard to say something about satoshi.

[acpr23]

very interesting news. hopefully soon we will all discover the real identity of mr. satoshi nakamoto. and soon he may be the number 1 in the richest persons  in the world lists

[BitcoinMoses]

What is this fuss are you talking about ?

Satoshi Nakamoto the inventor of Bitcoin in the Billionaires Rich list ? It is a joke man ! it is a very painful joke for Satoshi Nakamoto. Many Bitcoin thieves are now Billionaires. 

[cryptolit]

Unless he's a group of people. Right?!

But still doing well.
