Bitcoin’s latest record-breaking rally hasn’t just electrified the crypto market—it’s also sent the net worth of its mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, soaring to unprecedented levels.
Following today’s surge in BTC price, the estimated value of Nakamoto’s 1.09 million untouched Bitcoins has jumped by $7.4 billion, pushing his fortune to approximately $128.9 billion. This windfall places him just ahead of Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell, making Nakamoto the 11th richest person on the planet.
Just three months ago, Nakamoto’s holdings were valued at around $90 billion. The recent sharp rise in Bitcoin’s price has added nearly $40 billion to that figure, underscoring the scale of wealth tied to early crypto adoption. While the identity behind the pseudonym remains a mystery, the assets themselves are very real—and untouched. None of Nakamoto’s Bitcoins have ever been moved or sold, further fueling speculation and fascination.
Currently, the list of the top 10 richest people is dominated by tech moguls, with Elon Musk at the top ($406.5 billion), followed by Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos. Nakamoto now sits just outside that elite circle, and if Bitcoin continues its trajectory, it may not be long before he climbs even higher.
Though absent from the public eye, Nakamoto’s impact on the global economy—and now, on the world’s wealth rankings—is undeniable. As Bitcoin cements its place in the financial mainstream, the legacy and fortune of its enigmatic founder continue to grow.
