Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto is officially the 11th richest man in the world thanks to Bitcoin!
Jakarta, Pintu News – Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin (BTC), is now officially the 11th richest person in the world after the price of Bitcoin broke $120,000 (around Rp1.95 billion per BTC, exchange rate 1 USD = Rp16,287). According to Arkham’s data, Satoshi is estimated to own around 1.096 million BTC which is currently worth more than $131 billion, or equivalent to Rp2,134 trillion.
Satoshi Nakamoto’s wealth surpasses that of many global conglomerates
With this value, Satoshi Nakamoto managed to surpass the wealth of Michael Dell (CEO of Dell Technologies) who currently has a fortune of around $125.1 billion (Rp2,038 trillion). However, Forbes’ list of richest people does not include crypto assets such as Bitcoin in its calculations, but only publicly verified assets such as stocks.
Currently, Elon Musk (CEO of Tesla and SpaceX) tops the list of the world’s richest people with a fortune of more than $404 billion, followed by Larry Ellison (Oracle) and Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), each with around $274 billion. To take the top spot, the price of Bitcoin would have to increase by about 208% to reach $370,000 (Rp6.02 billion per BTC) and Satoshi’s wealth could only rival that of Elon Musk.
Bitcoin Price Predictions and Satoshi’s Projected Wealth
Some analysts predict that the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise. Eric Balchunas from Bloomberg estimates that if Bitcoin grows on average 50% per year, Satoshi has the opportunity to enter the top two richest people in the world in 2026. Meanwhile, analysts from 10x Research assess the chances of Bitcoin rising 20% to $133,000 (Rp2.16 billion) by September 2025 are very large.
Not only that, Matt Hougan from Bitwise predicts the price of Bitcoin could break $200,000 (Rp3.26 billion) by the end of 2025, while Arthur Hayes (BitMEX) is even more optimistic: $250,000 (Rp4.07 billion) before 2025 ends.
Compare Satoshi’s Wealth and Other Big Bitcoin Owners
Satoshi Nakamoto is the largest Bitcoin “whale” in the world, far surpassing any other individual or institution. Total Bitcoin holdings by companies and custodians are currently only 847,000 BTC, while individuals such as the Winklevoss twins (founders of Gemini) hold around 70,000 BTC, Tim Draper (venture capitalist) 30,000 BTC, and Michael Saylor (MicroStrategy) around 17,732 BTC.
With over a million BTC in his possession, Satoshi Nakamoto is not only a crypto pioneer, but also a symbol of wealth that has never been “cashed out” – adding to the mystery of who exactly is behind the name.
Conclusion
The phenomenon of Satoshi Nakamoto’s soaring wealth emphasizes how much potential and influence Bitcoin has in the world of global finance. If the trend of crypto price growth continues, it is not impossible that in the next few years, Satoshi could occupy the top two or even the top of the richest people in the world.
