Satoshi Nakamoto's Wealth Milestone
Satoshi Nakamoto has overtaken Bill Gates to become the 15th richest person in the world as Bitcoin hits an all-time high of $107,800.
This surge in net worth can be attributed to Satoshi's early mining activities, potentially amassing around 1.1M BTC.
At this peak price, Satoshi's Bitcoin holdings could theoretically be worth about $118.58B.
Decoding Satoshi's Wealth
The extent of Satoshi's wealth is deduced through the 'Patoshi pattern,' identified by bitcoin researchers.
This pattern helped analysts speculate the amount of Bitcoin that Satoshi mined.
The conservative estimate of Satoshi's wealth is $107.5B, given the speculative nature of the exact number of Bitcoins mined.
There is also no information about any other potential holdings that Satoshi would have or whether Satoshi is an individual or a group.
The Mystery and Impact of Untouched Bitcoins
Despite the potential wealth, Satoshi's speculated holdings have never been moved from their original wallets.
This could reflect a commitment to Bitcoin's decentralized philosophy or suggest that the keys to these wallets might be lost.
There is also speculation that Satoshi, if they were an individual might have passed away.
