Bitcoin (BTC) founder Satoshi Nakamoto has become the 11th richest person in the world, surpassing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Walmart heirs Jim, Rob and Alice Walton.
The interesting information was shared by blockchain analysis firm Arkham Intelligence.
According to Arkham’s data, Nakamoto’s Bitcoin stash makes up about 5.2% of the total supply, which is about 1.1 million Bitcoins. After reaching an all-time high of $111,814 in recent days, the price is hovering around $110,000. With this value, Nakamoto’s wealth has reached about $121 billion as of today.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, that fortune ranks behind only tech giants Elon Musk ($374 billion), Jeff Bezos ($222 billion) and Mark Zuckerberg ($222 billion), but also surpasses the likes of Dell founder Michael Dell, Nvidia founder Huang and Zara parent company Inditex founder Amancio Ortega.
However, it is not clear exactly how much Bitcoin Nakamoto owns. For example, the BiTBO platform states that Nakamoto owns 968,452 Bitcoins. This figure is equivalent to approximately $106 billion at current prices, making him the 17th richest person in the world.
