They are two of the people who are the richest people in the world, especially Bill Gates. Though these two, Mark Zuckerburg and Bill Gates will never be buying bitcoin unless they want to or they piqued their interest in this digital currency. They are billionaires and dont need to be affiliated with other currencies online.

If Bill Gates and Zuckerberg buy bitcoin for sure the bitcoin price will pump very high because this two people are billionaire like Bill Gates the #1 richest in the world if decide to invest bitcoin I think millions of dollars so the price increase. But I don't think this people are spent time with this kind of online business because they have their own business in online.

Bitcoin has a Market Cap of 19 billion so that means all bitcoin in circulation at that moment are worth 19 billion??

Bill Gates has a fortune of what 60 billion and zuckerberg approximatly 40 billion, i know they dont just have that mney laying around but assume zuckerberg would sell of all of his facebook shares and buys off as many bitcoins as he can for his money (40 billion) could he just buy all of them.

of course he wouldnt just buy them all at once and he for sure wouldnt sell all his facebook shares all at once but we assume he switches his facebook shares over a period of a few years all in crypto

could he just buy all of them??

He can only buy coins from people willing to sell them (he's not getting mine). Besides, once somebody tries to do this the market would either crash or skyrocket. Last, I'm not sure exactly what somebody would gain by owning all Bitcoins.

They cannot because if they try buying large amounts at the current price, they will end up increasing the price, thus the marketcap making it impossible for them to buy all the coins.

No he won't because he is already so rich that he will die before he can exhaust all his waste should he decides to retire and spend money big time everyday

Bill Gates is Already No 1 Rich of world I think why he invest and earn money from sites
Yes, that is true. I think no longer need to make an investment. His money will not run out until his grandchildren later.

Theoretically possible but everyone would know about it. Their wealth is held in MicroSoft and FaceBook shares once they sell it will send red flags in the tech world.

Why would they do that? Do they have enough money to buy up all bitcoins to be sold on the market, but it will lead to the fact that their real money will become virtual. I think it's stupid. Much more profitable to invest in production that will make money in the long run. For example, the development of alternative energy.

How does he even want to achieve that? Sure they can decide to buy as much as they can but not everything. But what is he looking for? They have enough money to go around. Unless they want to run a bitcoin charity program which I must
sure be one of the beneficiaries.

Well, the Twinkelvoss twins are some of the most wealthy Bitcoin owners, who believed in this technology many years ago. Thus, I think Zuck won't buy Bitcoin... (just joking because of the Facebook's early years lawsuit  Grin)

Technically they can, though i don't think these rich people would bother doing that. They're already filthy rich and i don't think it's logical to sell all your shares and invest solely on bitcoin. They've come to that point in their lives because they're good at making decisions with their money so i don't think they'd risk their current statuses for this

Maybe yes maybe no. No one knows if bill gates and zuckerberg invest thir money in bitcoin. But if they invest for sure they did not show the public and they keep secret. Bill gates is number 1 rich in the world I think even bitcoin he know also this and I hope tjis two man invest in bitcoin if its happen for sure the price will be going to high and many people invest also so the price continue increasing.

Elon musk puts his money in new technologies. Why do you think that bill gates or mark Zuckerberg is stupid. They have enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their days. Perhaps it would be preferable to also leave their mark in the history of environmental energy to earn additional millions in currency speculation.
