SATOSHI NAKAMOTO’S WEALTH SURPASSES $100 BILLION AS BITCOIN PRICE SURGES
Tokyo, April 24, 2025 — The elusive and legendary figure behind Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, has once again captured global attention as the estimated value of their holdings has officially surpassed $103 billion USD. This milestone follows a sharp rise in Bitcoin’s price, which jumped over 6.7% in the past 24 hours.
Blockchain analysts and on-chain data trackers continue to estimate that Satoshi holds approximately 1.096 million BTC, mined during the earliest days of the network. These coins have remained untouched since 2010, and their value now sits at an all-time high, positioning Satoshi as one of the wealthiest individuals on the planet—at least on paper.
Silent Riches: A Fortune Never Moved
Despite the staggering valuation, there’s no evidence that any of Satoshi’s coins have ever been spent or transferred. The associated wallet addresses remain dormant, fueling speculation ranging from ideological commitment to more mysterious theories.
Market and Community Response
The recent BTC price spike has reignited bullish sentiment across the crypto space. Analysts attribute the rally to growing institutional adoption, expanding spot Bitcoin ETF volumes, and Bitcoin’s role as a hedge against inflation.
“The fact that Satoshi’s wallet remains untouched is a powerful symbol of trust in Bitcoin’s foundations—that it is a decentralized system beyond the control of any single entity,” said Rinaldi Ghozali, blockchain analyst at QuantumDelta.
