[Bitcasino.io Support]

Hello, crypto fans

We all know Satoshi Nakamoto. But the cryptocurrency industry would be nothing without its innovators who have worked hard to turn it into a success.
These people have fostered the popularity of cryptocurrency and are one of the reasons why it’s so widespread around the world.

Thanks to them, the world has Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as well as a plethora of innovations in the form of digital assets, platforms and systems.
Not only that, these cryptocurrency trailblazers continue to drive the crypto movement towards mainstream finance adoption and other developments.

The crypto industry is yet to reach its full potential. You never know what new innovations will be made to improve it,
but you can rest assured that the best minds are on the case. Keep reading to learn more about some of the most influential people in crypto:

Changpeng Zhao: Founder of Binance

Changpeng Zhao, also known as ‘CZ’, is the CEO of the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world.
After studying computer science at McGill University, CZ began to work in the financial and technology sector.

His extensive experience in the industry includes being a developer for trading software and a technology officer for OkCoin.
However, the real magic began when Zhao founded Binance in 2017.

Binance first started out in China then soon expanded to countries like Japan and Taiwan as their success continued to grow.
Trusted by millions of users worldwide, the exchange continues to be a trailblazer in the industry.

Today, Zhao continues to dedicate his time and effort into Binance and its growth. It maintains a steady flow of demand despite being
one of the oldest crypto exchange platforms. Meanwhile, its native token BNB coin is also gaining traction in the market.

Vitalik Buterin: Founder of Ethereum

Known as the great mind behind Ethereum and Bitcoin Magazine, Vitalik Buterin is undoubtedly a household name in the crypto world.
At a young age, he was already drawn to technology, maths and economics.

In 2013, he proposed a whitepaper that plotted his plans for the Ethereum platform and cryptocurrency, which was then launched the following year.
Since then, Ethereum rose through the ranks and is now one of the best cryptocurrencies in the world. With a market capitalization of $249 billion,
it maintains its place after Bitcoin.

Brian Armstrong: CEO of Coinbase

Brian Armstrong is well known in the crypto industry because of his opinions regarding different issues and controversies in the crypto sphere,
as well as suggestions on improving it. Some of these include his clash with the Trump administration in 2020 and his words of wisdom to crypto
beginners about getting started in the industry. Armstrong started his career as a software developer and engineer for companies like Airbnb and IBM.

Upon acquiring $150,000 worth of funding in 2012, Armstrong used it to launch Coinbase. It soon became one of the most sought-after crypto exchanges
worldwide with more than 43 million users. Today, Coinbase is the first and only cryptocurrency exchange that has filed with the SEC to go public.

Joseph Lubin: Founder of ConsenSys

Born and raised in Canada, Joseph Lubin grew to pursue his passion for finance and computer science. After graduating from Princeton University,
his career slowly took off until he became the COO for EthSuisse, where he worked on the program-storing capabilities of blockchain.

Soon after, Lubin was invited by Vitalik Buterin to be one of the co-founders of Ethereum. He contributed to improving ETH through blockchain programs.
However, he is most known for founding Consensys in 2015. ConsenSys is a production studio dedicated to software and applications that are designed
to run on the Ethereum blockchain.

Amiti Uttarwar: The first woman to contribute to developing Bitcoin Core’s underlying code

In the cryptocurrency industry, female names are rarely heard of. However, this all changed when Amiti Uttarwar, a Bitcoin Protocol Engineer for
Bitcoin Core became one of the first women to contribute to developing its underlying code.

Uttarwar started her career as a developer who was proficient in dozens of coding languages. This gave her the opportunity to work with big names
in the crypto industry such as Coinbase.

Moreover, her career took off in Bitcoin Core where she became the first woman to contribute and gain funding to work on the software.
Aside from this, she also mentors other aspiring professionals who are looking to start a career in the industry as well.

Pavel Durov: Creator of privacy-focused messaging app, Telegram

Who would have guessed that a messaging app would be able to contribute to the crypto world? This is exactly what Pavel Durov,
the ‘Mark Zuckerberg of Russia’, did when Telegram was launched in 2013.

Durov believes everyone should have access to private communication. With the help of his brother, Nikolai Durov, the application soon became
a popular platform for crypto enthusiasts. Telegram became a gathering hub for crypto enthusiasts because of its privacy features.
It also supports news channels for crypto, as well as updates on crypto trading signals.

Brad Garlinghouse: CEO of Ripple, the 4th best cryptocurrency in the world

Garlinghouse specialises in financial technology and has worked for notable companies like AOL and Yahoo!
In 2015, he joined the Ripple team as COO and was promoted to CEO the following year.

Although the company has had its fair share of problems, especially with the latest SEC lawsuit, Garlinghouse remains positive.
The company has since bounced back and maintains the 4th spot of the best cryptocurrencies in the world.


These crypto kings and queens along with countless others are the reason why the cryptocurrency industry continues to break barriers and grow in popularity.
Public demand has risen and it’s all because of the technological advances and initiatives that stemmed from these experts.

I think the smartest in economic terms speaking is the founder of Binance.They are earning millions of dollars from daily commissions and also their coin BnB is going really well.I think right now this is the most widely used exchange.

In terms of being smart the smartest is without a doubt the founder of Ethereum.

[sulis sudibyo]

if satoshi appeared in public maybe he would be one of the kings too. he owns 1 million bitcoins and is the inventor and owner of bitcoin. so maybe he would be equal to Vitalik or CZ.

[20kevin20]

I wouldn't give props to Garlinghouse or Durov for the stuff they came up with. Ripple is shit and so is Telegram and their "privacy-focused" messaging app. Telegram is anything but privacy-focused.

I think Zhao has the largest contribution out there, offering a decent centralized exchange that moved as much away from KYC as possible while making their platform not only newbie-friendly but a very attractive way of bringing in new inevstors into the game..

[Lucius]

I wouldn't give props to Garlinghouse or Durov for the stuff they came up with. Ripple is shit and so is Telegram and their "privacy-focused" messaging app. Telegram is anything but privacy-focused.

I would agree with your opinion, and I believe many others will agree when it comes to XRP or Telegram. Social networks have become part of the digital society, but Telegram has become an empire of crypto scams - to the extent that I have written several times on the forum that this is an app that every beginner should avoid. These two are far from being put on the list of any crypto kings - but they have definitely both amassed a mountain of money because they have offered the market something that is obviously very popular.

Although the company has had its fair share of problems, especially with the latest SEC lawsuit, Garlinghouse remains positive.
The company has since bounced back and maintains the 4th spot of the best cryptocurrencies in the world.

The best cryptocurrency by what criteria? The only reason they are so high (currently 5th place on CMC) is that the circulating supply of that coin is an incredible 45,404,028,640, and the total supply is 99,990,831,162 - a position secured by tens of billions of tokens and the current price.

[Obito]

I don't if you should count it because who I'm going to be mentioning is an infamous one. Dr. Ruja Ignatova aka Crypto Queen is on the most wanted with her OneCoin pyramiding scheme that had her swindle billions of dollars and disappear and evade authorities up to this day.

[Mr.sprin]

if satoshi appeared in public maybe he would be one of the kings too. he owns 1 million bitcoins and is the inventor and owner of bitcoin. so maybe he would be equal to Vitalik or CZ.

I agree that if satoshi appears in public then he will be king and everyone is waiting for the day to come. satoshi is such a smart person that he thought about the future of bitcoin before anyone else thought it was crazy, but satoshi can prove that bitcoin is so valuable that it deserves the satoshi to become king.

[bosede1]

For the king, I will give a huge accolade to the inventor of Binance and Ethereum. With what has been happening in my country Binance has really helped a long way with crypto transactions and all. Ethereum to me as also stood the test of time as altcoin so far.

[Kayum10029]

Bitcoin ceo Satoshi nakamoto is the king of cryptocurrencies and Ethereum owner vitalik Ethereum the queen of cryptocurrencies. But recently Binance coin is the best competitor of Ethereum.

[finaleshot2016]

King of Crypto is Satoshi Nakamoto, they are nothing if satoshi Nakamoto didn't exist.

But ++ for all they've accomplished, so I'm considering them as one of those kings for the time being, because Satoshi hasn't been identified. For me, Vitalik is the leading king; Ethereum is one of the best altcoins ever that can compete with bitcoin, and I'm fascinated by how smart contracts function, generating a large number of coins.

Though I admire CZ, Binance's founder, for his commitment to make Binance the world's leading exchange in terms of trading volume and low fees, which is why the BNB price is skyrocketing.

[rosebrand]

First of all thanks to Satoshi Nakamoto because without him there would have been no crypto in the world and no one knows how things would have been without crypto because in the world today a large number of people depends on crypto for survival and most lives has been changed through crypto. Secondly thanks to all those great men and woman who contributed to the growth of crypto because without them crypto wouldn't have been this successful gaining much more interest in the world, their effort did a lot and helped cryptocurrencies to get to this point, for me I would always remain thankful because am no longer broke because of crypto.

[kryptqnick]

Satoshi did a lot, but you're right that the whole maintenance, infrastructure and development require other people. I agree that Zhao and Buterin deserve to be on this list, and I'd perhaps add He Yi (she is a co-founder of Binance) as well. It was interesting to read about Amiti Uttarwar, it was honestly the first time I've heard of her.
As for Pavel Durov, I like Telegram, and I've used his other social network when it was popular in my country, but I'm not sure if it's so integral for the crypto market to bloom. I mean, he's creative and all that, but he doesn't strike me as a 'crypto king'.
Moreover, for the sake of history, I would add David Chaum. I think that his creation, while commercially unsuccessful, was an important precursor to cryptocurrencies as we know them today.

[Gamerholic]

Yes, these people have done a lot and will do a lot in the future, but I am sure the list will be replenished with new names. They don't have to be the owners or founders - they might be promoters, bloggers or journalists who will move the market forward. Perhaps someone is already worthy to take a place among these people, but I would not rush. When blockchain news is back in vogue is one thing, but if the market unfolds, let's see how many people will stay afloat and which projects will withstand the next storm.

[Rruchi man]

I agree that if satoshi appears in public then he will be king and everyone is waiting for the day to come.

If that day comes, and an individual suddenly emerges as Mr Satoshi, the question of his true identity will emerge. At this point, i don't think anyone will be quick to believe the claim of anyone as Mr Satoshi.

[dothebeats]

The only thing I hate in Telegram is that it became a hub for people that shares the same liking towards child porn. It's a pretty good secure messaging app, although again with that much security and privacy comes the trade-offs.

The other names on the list also contributed a lot to cryptocurrency, for they either brought some innovations on crypto services or upheld some ethos on cryptocurrencies. Changpeng Zhao, albeit one of the most undesirable figures in some countries due to his exchange, brought a nice centralized exchange unlike any other, seeking to open a market wherein KYC isn't necessary for people who just want to do some quick trades. In a market that is slowly being encroached by invasive regulations, CZ stood his ground in spite of receiving countless complaints and fines imposed on him.

[jesselui]

Satoshi nagatomo was last active in the forum in 2010. Since then, no news has been heard from him. Either he's hiding himself because he has that much money. Or it really doesn't live anymore. Nobody knows.

[KryptoKings]

Binance founder CZ is no doubt the king of crypto industry as he can make or break any coin/token. If binance announce it is going to list some coin/tokens, people will go crazy for that crypto asset.
He has more influence than many of individuals op mentioned.
Same goes for Vitalik too but he is more focused on his own blickchain.

[Bitstar_coin]

Bitcoin ceo Satoshi nakamoto is the king of cryptocurrencies and Ethereum owner vitalik Ethereum the queen of cryptocurrencies. But recently Binance coin is the best competitor of Ethereum.

Yes I wonder why he was excluded on the list! Or perhaps he his too qualified to be on the list list, if they can include cz, vitalik,  Armstrong as among the btc King mean while the original brain behind the whole crypto market in the first place.

^ Hi Karl let me explain my thought.
Satoshi Nakamoto is not the King of BTC or the entire cryptocurrency. He is the God of it as he was the one who founded, created, and established it. If not because of Satoshi Nakamoto, other altcoins and also exchange platforms will not be there. They were just lucky enough to jump in early and also trust the job of Satoshi Nakamoto. Nevertheless, the greatest and the most intelligent and talented one on the list is the CEO and Founder of Binance.
Because of him, Cryptocurrency is now becoming more and more accepted by the crowd. It was too impossible for a cryptocurrency company to be listed on a stock exchange. And that was a life-changing one.
