Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin, is believed to hold around 1.1 million BTC. With Bitcoin now priced at $100,000, that puts Satoshi’s net worth at a staggering $110 billion — and not a single coin has ever moved from that stash.
What’s truly baffling is that no one has ever definitively proven they are Satoshi. Over the past decade, countless individuals have come forward claiming to be the elusive founder — and almost all have been exposed as frauds.
Just recently, one man even live-streamed himself claiming to be Satoshi, only to fall apart when asked to explain Bitcoin’s elliptical curve encryption algorithm. He froze on the spot, breaking into a cold sweat. Developers watching quickly called him out, pointing out that he didn’t even understand the structure of a block header — a fundamental part of Bitcoin’s architecture.
If you ask me, a true legend doesn’t need to show their face. Satoshi let a few lines of code shake up the entire world economy — and has kept the world guessing for 15 years. Now that’s what I call real power.
