people who became BTC millionaires by accident and so on.
Noone become millionaire by accident. If we exclude the illegitimate ways, even mining for a day or two in 2009 and forgetting about them until today is the right thing to do, not an accident. On the other hand they is a lot, and I do mean A LOT of stories of people who could have become that and didn't cause stupid for the most part. You should cover those, educationally.

No, it's someone with a million Satoshi. 1 Bitcoin? Good question actually what do you consider a millionaire. A person with enough btc which converts into 1 million fiat or 1 million Bitcoin itself?

I meant someone who has made a lot of money out of BTC - 1 million bucks or something. Enough significantly change their life.
And, yes, you make a good point - there is a story to be told about those who sold too early.
From its first exchange price at 1,300 to 1USD, bitcoin was a million bagger for somebody!

I don't necessarily think that having a net worth of 1 mill makes you a millionaire... maybe 5-10mill...or maybe as low as 2-3 mill.. I could be wrong, but when I think of millionaire, I think of more than 1 million...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MillionaireA millionaire (originally and sometimes still millionnaire[1]) is an individual whose net worth or wealth is equal to or exceeds one million units of currency.
In general, 5-10 million (or even 2-3 million) is commonly known as "multi-millionaire".

LOL i can't believe this whole thread so far is about "What do you mean by a Millionaire"
Obviously he means you had a bunch of Bitcoin, preferably by investing little to no money, then one day woke up and had the equivalent of a million US Dollars or more.
And then an even better variation of the story is that you cashed out and bought your own Jet.
Seems pretty obvious that's what he's looking for. Success stories!

I would consider someone a Bitcoin millionaire if they had over 100 BTC, and especially over 1000 BTC.

That’s a very interesting scoop. I already read a lot of stories about bitcoin millionaires. Maybe you could find some informative stuff at bitcoindaily.com that will help you on your writings.

More interesting would be, not people who sold too early, but people that mined say 10,000+ Bitcoin, and then forgot about it and maybe reformatted their HDD or something like that. I think there was a story of a guy who had a HDD with a large amount of Bitcoin on it, and he threw it away, and went digging through the dump. Ouch!! ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif) Edit: Yep, here's the article on the guy who threw out his HDD. 7500 Bitcoin mined on a laptop!! Those were the days, LOL!! http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/nov/27/hard-drive-bitcoin-landfill-site

A Bitcoin millionaire is somebody who has over a million £ or $ in Bitcoins. I think Satoshi is the only Bitcoin billionaire, or he was at least. I would consider someone a Bitcoin millionaire if they had over 100 BTC, and especially over 1000 BTC.
How would that make them a millionaire? 1000 BTC is currently £371,700.

A millionaire? I'm pretty sure you need to have 1 million bitcoins to qualify as a millionaire. There can be at most 21 bitcoin millionaires at any given time.
