Bitcoin Skyrockets to $94K — Satoshi Nakamoto Quietly Becomes a $100 Billion Mystery Mogul!
Jakarta, Pintu News – Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin , has again seen the value of his Bitcoin holdings surpass the $100 billion mark. This increase comes as the price of Bitcoin begins to recover from its recent low.
With the price of Bitcoin currently trading above $94,000, Nakamoto’s holdings-which have not been touched since its creation-are now worth over $103 billion.
Bitcoin Price Surge Pushes Satoshi Nakamoto’s Holdings to $100 Billion
In recent days, the rise in Bitcoin price has caused the value of Satoshi Nakamoto’s Bitcoin reserves to rise sharply, returning his billionaire status to the $100 billion category.
Bitcoin price briefly broke through the $90,000 level and reached a high of $94,500 before correcting slightly on some other exchanges.
This price increase is part of a rally that has pushed Bitcoin up 27% from five-month lows hit earlier this month – and interestingly, just three weeks after the creator’s 50th birthday.
According to data from Arkham Intelligence, Bitcoin’s creator Nakamoto is known to own around 1.1 million BTC, making him the largest individual holder of Bitcoin. The asset, which has been untouched for more than a decade, has now surpassed $103 billion in value.
Bitcoin Holdings Remain Untouchable
Despite the ever-increasing price of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto has not moved any of his Bitcoin holdings since they were first mined in the early days of Bitcoin’s existence.
Around 1.1 million BTC attributed to Nakamoto was mined using a unique pattern known as the “Patoshi Pattern.”
These particular blocks mined between 2009 and 2010 have distinctive technical characteristics and are believed to be from a single entity.
This pattern is also linked to the only known Bitcoin transaction directly attributed to Nakamoto, a transaction that took place in 2009. Since then, no other activity has been seen from Nakamoto’s wallet.
To date, there is no information that Nakamoto intends to sell or transfer his BTC.

Although the identity of Bitcoin’s creator remains a mystery, several institutions are now recorded as owning sizable amounts of Bitcoin. Companies like BlackRock and MicroStrategy have accumulated large BTC holdings, even approaching the amount Nakamoto has.
BlackRock, as the largest Bitcoin ETF manager, currently owns around 573,000 BTC, while MicroStrategy holds 538,000 BTC. Combined, these two institutions own more than 1.1 million Bitcoin and are big players in the crypto market.
However, unlike Nakamoto whose ownership is private and dormant, institutional ownership like this is subject to regulation and legal responsibilities towards shareholders and investors.
Tesla is also among the companies that have started to dive into the Bitcoin market. In its Q1 2025 financial report, Tesla was recorded as holding around 11,509 BTC, which is worth more than $1 billion due to the surge in Bitcoin price.
While not as large as BlackRock or MicroStrategy’s investments, Tesla’s BTC holdings reflect the trend of growing corporate interest in crypto assets.
However, unlike Nakamoto who stores his BTC inactively, Tesla actively buys and stores BTC as part of the company’s assets.
