Satoshi Nakamoto surpasses Bill Gates? The global wealth list unexpectedly features an "anonymous billionaire"!
A mysterious account that has never shown its face, relying on 1.1 million bitcoins that have been "left untouched", once shattered the wealth ceiling of the real world!
Yes, Satoshi Nakamoto briefly surpassed Bill Gates, climbing to 12th place on the global rich list, not through entrepreneurial financing, but through the pure valuation appreciation of Bitcoin. When the price of Bitcoin soared to over $110,000, his net worth reached $113.8 billion, surpassing Gates' $112.9 billion—who would have thought that a string of private keys in the digital world could be worth more than the world's largest philanthropist?
But this is also the cruel reality: as the price of coins adjusts, Satoshi's wealth fell back to $114 billion, while Gates rose to $166.3 billion, creating a gap of over $50 billion in an instant. The "volatility" of crypto assets determines that the title of "richest person" is just a fluctuating number.
And the most magical part is that these coins have never been used. The code written 15 years ago has quietly transformed into the largest "passive income" asset in human history.
