How Much Bitcoin Does Satoshi Nakamoto Have?

When Satoshi Nakamoto released the Bitcoin white paper in 2008, he (or she, or they) proposed a revolutionary digital currency that would allow people to transact with each other without the need for a third party. Nakamoto also mined the first ever block of Bitcoin, known as the genesis block, and created the first ever address with a balance of 50 BTC.

Since then, Nakamoto’s BTC balance has remained untouched. At current prices, 50 BTC is worth over $500 million. So how much Bitcoin does Satoshi Nakamoto have?

We don’t know for sure, but estimates put the figure at around 1 million BTC. That would make Nakamoto’s Bitcoin stash worth over $10 billion at today’s prices.

While Nakamoto’s identity remains a mystery, it’s clear that whoever they are, they are extremely wealthy. And with Bitcoin’s price continuing to rise, it’s likely that their fortune will only grow larger in the years to come.

Satoshi Nakamoto is the founder of Bitcoin and is estimated to have 1 million Bitcoins which are worth over $10 billion at today’s prices.
